Keynote Speakers

Prof. Yves Pigneur, University of Lausanne (Switzerland)

DESIGNING BUSINESS TOOLS FOR THE FUTURE – THE CONTRIBUTION OF IS

Based on his work with Alex Osterwalder on business models, Yves Pigneur will suggest that research in business innovation could be improved and enlightened by design science research in Information Systems. He will highlight three areas in which research in IS could inform the development of new business tools. The first area concerns the identification, formalization, and visualization of core constructs and models of interest related to business innovation and co-design of the “Enterprise of the future”. The second area corresponds to the exploration of how design thinking techniques might contribute to improving the design and test of alternatives in business creation. The third area addresses the research in computer-aided design assisting the process of designing business objects.

Short Bio

Yves Pigneur is professor at University of Lausanne since 1984, and has held visiting professorships at Georgia State University, University of British Columbia, National University of Singapore, and HEC Montreal. Together with Alexander Osterwalder, they invented the Business Model Canvas and authored in 2010 the international bestseller _“Business Model Generation”_; and more recently _“Value Proposition Design”_. In November 2015, they have been ranked #15 in the _Most Influential Business Thinkers_ by Thinkers50 and received their Strategy Award. In 2016, he received the Outreach Award, by the Association for Information Systems (AIS).

Prof. Sudha Ram, Eller College of Management, University of Arizona (USA)

Leveraging Big Data and Analytics For Creating a Smarter and Better World

The phenomenal growth of social media, mobile applications, sensor based technologies and the Internet of Things is generating a flood of “Big Data” and disrupting our world in many ways. In this talk I will examine the paradigm shift caused by Big data and discuss how Analytics and Data science can be used to to harness its power and create a smarter world. Using examples from health care, smart cities, education, and business in general, I will highlight challenges and opportunities for extracting value from Big Data to develop an enterprise of the future.

Guillaume Tardiveau, Orange Labs Research (France)

Business Ecosystem in 2025

Over the last decades companies have used data as a substitue to paper and files. Lately internet, which is a digital native by all means, seems to be moving in the opposite direction by emerging in the physical world of objects. What should we expect from this encounter, and from the transformations that it will trigger on the way enterprises work? Anticipate the evolutions of enterprises on a 10-15 years timeframe is not easy, considering their diversity and the changing nature of their environment. This talk proposes to start from the Porter model and explore the relations between enterprises and their ecosystem (internal/external) as well as the way they work.

Short Bio

Guillaume Tardiveau initially worked for SITA/Equant in the domain of network planning for IP and ATM networks, based in Paris. After the taker over of Equant by Orange he moved to Rennes to head the Services Engineering department (VPN, IP Telephony, …), then the non standard customer solutions. Back to Paris, he joined the Line of Business Home where he was supporting the Orange BU’s in Africa, then headed the International Orange Labs (Japan, China, India, Egypt, Tunisia, Poland, Romania), before moving to Orange Labs Research as head of Digital Enterprise Research Domain.
