INFORMATION GOVERNANCE AND E-DISCOVERY – TOWARDS THE 21ST CENTURY.

“Up to 60 % of storage is wasted – how much is this costing you?”

The amount of information that corporations accumulate each year is growing at an outstanding rate and the importance of knowing how and what to store of this conglomerate mass is vital. The relevance of information governance is thus paramount to any organisations survival in this digital age.

As electronic discovery is a continually moving target which requires ongoing monitoring and upgrading to ensure new risks are detected and minimised at the earliest opportunity, the importance of being informed and ready is critical. Organisations are also faced with other challenges, like: security, greater mobility of staff and clients and the ongoing pressure to make firms more cost effective and competitive – therefore making the stake for information governance even higher.

Chilli IQ’s Information Governance & eDiscovery Summit has been created through the guidance of industry experts and will shed light to this dark tunnel of data and cover the most relevant issues in discovery today. It will not only focus on the ‘how-to’ of information governance but will also incorporate emerging trends facing practitioners, today.

Researched with industry peers based in Asia, Connected Health Asia provides a comprehensive platform for healthcare institutions and solutions providers to examine pertinent issues in implementing eHealth and Mobile\Telemedicine. In its second year, it is bigger and better, incorporating a dedicated track on Electronic Health Records (EHR), reviewing know-how to build a good EHR system and how it can facilitate the implementation of mHealth.
