The Computer Society of Sri Lanka (CSSL) and Federation of Information Technology Industry Sri Lanka (FITIS) will host the fourth CIO Forum on the theme ‘Information Management’.

Kodak Alaris along with their local partner, Ninehearts Imaging, will sponsor the event which will be held on March 1 at the Kingsbury Hotel, Colombo.

Information management concerns a cycle of organizational activity including acquisition, processing, storage and distribution of information.

The challenges that organizations face today ranges across the spectrum; from capturing the chaos of multiple information sources such as email, paper, social media feeds, mobile messaging apps, etc., to processing and deriving meaningful information, to ensuring that it is viewed and addressed by the right personnel within an acceptable timeframe.

By 2020, there will be enough data created each year to fill 11 trillion DVDs, with 90% of it being unstructured. The struggle among businesses to extract meaningful information from this data is universal.
