‘The beating heart of the Netherlands when it comes to IT innovation’

  Gabriella Meijnckens is Manager Marketing & Events Business Media at IDG Nederland. IDG is the leading publisher in the field of ICT in the Netherlands. In Amersfoort, on 24 September 2015, she is organising the third edition of IT Innovation Day in ‘De Nieuwe Stad’ as part of the IT Innovation Week. The event will attract between 500 and 600 visitors, all of them IT decision makers from Dutch top companies (CIOs, CMOs, IT directors, senior IT management). “IT and digitization are drastically changing the world. Business models, businesses and functions are subject to constant transformation. Is the Netherlands ready for the digital future of tomorrow? That is what this event is all about. Innovation Day is an inspiring meeting with interesting examples of innovative IT applications. The day will demonstrate the importance of IT Innovation for the Netherlands, the business community and the labour market. Why Amersfoort as the location? The city is centrally located in the Netherlands and is easily accessible. But that's not all. The municipality namely presents itself explicitly as the beating heart of the Netherlands when it comes to IT innovation and has established itself as a strategic partner to the event. As the organising party, we are obviously very happy about this.”
