Strategic Implications of Platform Alliances and Partnership Ecosystems
Hosted by TripleTree and the SIIA

June 20, 2006
An SIIA Webcast

Featured Panelists:

  • Scott Hebner, Vice President, ISV & Developer Relations, IBM
  • John Roberts, Chairman, CEO & Co-Founder, SugarCRM
  • Steve Fisher, Vice President, AppExchange, salesforce.com
  • Enterprise applications delivered as a service are quickly aligning around six technology platform "ecosystems". Cost, scalability, user satisfaction and access to markets are driving many decisions that both providers and buyers of SaaS solutions are confronting. From the perspective of liquidity, the selection of the right ecosystem partner is also playing a role in both capital raises and strategic exits. This session will briefly review the six ecosystems and hear from three leading vendors about their perspectives on enabling innovation within their platform and where R & D investments can offer the greatest return.
