SharePoint dominates as an intranet and collaboration platform, but it seems increasingly challenged by more nimble, consumer-driven technologies. Microsoft too, seems to be putting the emphasis on Office 365. How should SharePoint evolve? How much should we be driven by employee expectations? And what should SharePoint teams be planning in response? In this keynote, Sam will consider:
• What are the trends in how people work and what they expect from their workplace tools?
• How useful is SharePoint as the basis for a digital workplace?
• How strong is the case for moving to Office 365?
• Is Microsoft’s roadmap enough to keep them in the lead?
• What are rival platforms doing that SharePoint misses?
Content Chaos: Why SharePoint and Office 365 Aren't the (only) AnswerZia Consulting
When Microsoft launched SharePoint, it was made for simply sharing documents within departments. Today, many organizations are trying to use it as their primary content management solution—their “system of record”—even though it was never designed for this.
In a recent ECM market study we see that:
93% of respondents use SharePoint in some manner within their organization
More than 75% still have a “strong commitment” to it
Yet...
Only 11% of these organizations see their deployment as a success
Why is this?
The leading concern is around the lack of true information governance capabilities within SharePoint. This makes it challenging to address compliance and security concerns. Additionally, significant issues remain around utilizing SharePoint for workflow/business processes or case management tasks. Finally, confusion around how to leverage SharePoint Online and Office 365—whether as a standalone or hybrid model—has further contributed to the “content chaos” around SharePoint.
In order to be successful, you need an organizational content management strategy that provides IT with security and compliance, while giving end users an intuitive experience for increased adoption. Ideally, your ECM should include:
SharePoint integration and synchronization
Federated search
Automated records management
Universal Content Security—from SharePoint to Alfresco and external collaboration
Document processing including case management and capture
Integration with Office/Email 365
and more….
How we can help
This presentation will further discuss known issues around SharePoint. We will also identify ways your company can implement solutions that ensure security and user adoption—through integration with your existing SharePoint deployment. You will also have the opportunity to network with industry peers and talk with leaders in ECM solutions.
7 things about intranets I learnt the hard waySam Marshall
Being an intranet manager can be demanding, and there isn't always someone else to learn from in your organisation. Based on 15 years as an intranet manager / consultant, I share some experiences of where things can go wrong, and how to avoid them:
* Disappearing Stakeholders
* Change comes from leadership not data
* Too much personalization
* When your intranet should look like your org chart
* Forgetting the late-adopters
* Over-zealous Governance
* trying to change everything at once
SharePoint adoption and governance - breakout sessionSam Marshall
Breakout session from Congres SharePoint September 2012 Utrecht.

The Social Enterprise in a Cloud First and Mobile First WorldRichard Harbridge
Organizations today need to be more responsive. People are more connected than ever before. The world has become a giant network, with people sharing, learning, and making decisions on the go at every second. What if you, and every person in your company could work together, like a network? What might that look like and how might social enterprise technology play a role?
While many organizations understand the benefits social technology can provide it’s often not as clear how we can go about implementing these technologies in a way that complements our organizations investments in powerful collaborative technologies like SharePoint. SharePoint is used as an enterprise collaboration platform in almost every organization, yet many organizations are still in the process of deciding why and when they should implement some of the new social capabilities or how best to leverage Social technologies like Yammer with their current investments.
Join Richard Harbridge as he shares Microsoft’s vision for Enterprise Social and the future of work. Richard will explain how and where customers are investing in social, what is changing and important to understand, and what technology investments have been made and are being made by Microsoft to help customers connect and work in a cloud first and mobile first world.

The Top 10 Mistakes in SharePoint ProjectsSam Marshall
Although all software has limitations, SharePoint has something of a reputation for difficult intranet projects. Often this has more to do with the implementation than with the technology itself. The most successful projects are the ones that manage to balance business, end user and IT considerations.
In this interactive masterclass Sam Marshall will take the audience along the 10 most common mistakes in SharePoint projects. We’ll explore some of the risks, highlight warning signs and share insights into how to keep your SharePoint intranet on track.
Loving the intranet - rethinking employee adoptionSam Marshall
Presented at Interaction 2012, London October 2012.
What can we do to make intranets and digital workplaces really valued, rather than just necessary places to go? What role should they play in employee engagement, that isn't just pretending to have a 2-way dialogue?
Making sense of your Digital WorkplaceSam Marshall
One of the challenges of a modern intranet is that the boundaries are becoming blurred by the growth of social and collaboration tools, mobile access and cloud applications. In this evolving landscape, intranets remain highly important, but the roadmap needs to plan for the digital workplace as a whole. Based on hands-on experience of developing strategy, Sam Marshall shows how approaching this from an employee perspective can bring clarity and purpose, but also how the emphasis needs to be as much on management as on technology.
The Digital Workplace Maturity Model – Going Beyond the Intranet
What does it take to move from a traditional intranet to something that supports all aspects of a digital workplace?
* How do the dimensions of community, collaboration, communication, services and structure interrelate?
How should your organization’s strategy dictate the profile of your digital workplace?
What can we learn from similar systems about how intranets can evolve?

Governing Office 365 Webinar - ClearBox with DebbleSam Marshall
In this webinar we look at the options for managing Office 365, and how to govern it so that it’s aligned with how your organisation works. Co-hosted by Sam Marshall of ClearBox and Franck van Diest of Debble.
Part of the appeal of Office 365 is that you get a broad range of tools. People are also empowered with a lot of freedom to request and manage features, such as sites, groups and teams. This openness can work well in some situations, but can also cause confusion.
-How Office 365 gives users freedom
-Why Microsoft’s push to let everyone do anything isn’t a great idea
-Strategies for Office 365 and SharePoint governance settings
-Why silos aren’t always such a bad thing.
Driving the Digital Workplace with Office 365Bill Ryan
Organizations are moving to Microsoft Office 365 at unprecedented speed making the platform Microsoft’s most successful product in it’s history. Many organizations use Office 365 for Exchange but have little expertise in understanding how to utilize the collaboration features of the platform. Companies struggle to understand how to deploy and use SharePoint, Lync, and Yammer as these features often go unused:
- SharePoint is often used simply as a document store
- There is little focus on integrating the Office 365 components into a cohesive solution
- Organizations lack the knowledge in how to put it all together to drive the Digital Workplace
When Should We Use SharePoint OOTB, Add Third Party Products, Or Build Custom...Richard Harbridge
Determining when to use SharePoint, build customizations that extend SharePoint, buy third party products, or to ignore SharePoint all together can be very challenging. It requires an understanding of SharePoint's strengths, weaknesses, and gaps as well as an understanding of how they apply to the business problems you are trying to solve. In this session, Richard Harbridge explores decisions other organizations have made, criteria they used to evaluate their options, lessons they learned, and how they approached these difficult decisions.
Personal Knowledge Mastery (PKM) and the Social IntranetIntranätverk
To make the most of a social intranet, the technology itself only takes us part of the way. This presentation focuses on Personal Knowledge Mastery (PKM) by Harold Jarche, which helps you take control of your professional development and stay connected in the digital workplace. When employees apply the Seek > Sense > Share model in the workplace, the content employees share on a social intranet might be even more valuable.

In this session, we are looking at the state of the Intranet within Office 365. We also dive into where to start when planning such a project. Collaboration or Publishing, wich one comes first? What tool to should we start with?
New technologies are changing the way people work with each other, their organization’s partners, and their customers.

Content publishing and communication strategies for office 365Maarten Visser
Looking at the new SharePoint Communication Sites and the role of SharePoint and Microsoft Teams. Digging into what Office 365 tools you should to have information flow through an organisation.
No matter how well designed your SharePoint intranet is, if it’s not used by employees then it won’t add value. However, SharePoint adoption remains a challenge for many companies, with low usage levels and functionality that often ignored as old practices persist. In this session Sam Marshall will guide you through a range of techniques for improving the use of your intranet.
• Why is SharePoint adoption challenging?
• What strategies have leading companies used to successfully introduce social tools?
• How much should we rely on managers and leaders to drive intranet adoption?
• How can you get away from 'big bang' launches?
• How can we encourage people to create content and interact, rather than just reading it?

On any SharePoint project, the core of the solution being built should be designed and architected first before being developed. With the flexibility of SharePoint solutions (specifically SharePoint 2013), there is never one way to design it right. The experienced SharePoint Architect however is able to figure out the best way for the project, constraints and client at hand. This session is meant to give insight to the average SharePoint Professional on what it takes to become and be a SharePoint Architect. It will help guide the aspiring SharePoint Architect on the items that really need to be thought of when architecting a SharePoint solution for your client and at the same time divulge some tricks of the trade learned from the countless enterprise SharePoint solutions I have successfully implemented over the years.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
