16:15 - 16:30 What customers really want - revealed

Tech suppliers hype the latest buzzwords - but is that actually the tech customers buy? In this special session Caretta Research lifts the lid on where technology buyers are really investing. They provide the inside track on the hard cash: revealing who’s buying which products from whom, exposing the cold spots, and spotlighting the segments of the market with most growth.
