There’s a perfect storm of disruption coming, we can’t do things the same way anymore. CIOs, senior managers, IT managers, business development managers, entrepreneurs - they all need to be out front, leading the change. It is about putting the “business” out to where the customers are. This is about flexibility and adaptability, working to new rules of design - making technology invisible by putting users at the centre of design...

The phrase Perfect Storm describes this rapidly shifting technology environment - raising serious questions for executives about how to help their companies capitalize on the transformation under way. Now it’s all about how to adapt management and organizational structures to meet these new demands.

iCE Amsterdam is the European leading event on mobile platforms, strategies and app development. When the iPhone (3G) arrived in Europe back in 2008 and the App store was launched, we knew great challanges lay ahead of enterprises, companies and developers, but mostly great oppertunities. iCE Amsterdam was founded to inspire these companies and bring people together with a lot of mobile ethousiasm to share knowledge and together challange the possibilities of the iPhone.

iCE Amsterdam had a very succesful start in November 2009. Its second edition in March 2011 showcased the various aspects of a rapidly evolving industry that will see watershed changes for enterprises and organisations around their IT structure...

The Appsterdam Meetup is where developers get together locally as often as they like – to do, share, learn and change something on app development. At this moment developers meet two times a week for informal get-togethers to share knowledge, passion and passing on the Appsterdam vibe. More dedicated meetup events will periodically be organised – like training sessions, hackathons, workshops, etc.
