Innovate: Smarter Software

Does your company build software?

If so, you should make sure some of those folks tune in or attend the Rational Innovate software conference starting Sunday down in Orlando.

I got an overview of this event on my weekly team call earlier today, and I’ve been known to blog at some of these events.

And I’m sorry to say I won’t be at Innovate! 

But, they have a great lineup of speakers for this year’s event, including IBM Research Chief Scientist Grady Booch, IBM Senior VP Marketing and Communications Jon Iwata, IBM SWG GM Steve Mills, and special guest speaker and innovation extraordinaire, Dean Kamen (inventor of the Segueway, among many other inventions).

And if you can’t be there live and in person, check out the Rational Innovate LiveStream starting on Monday for some of the keynotes.

And as you’ve come to expect from our friends in the IBM Software Group, we’ll have an all out social media full court press.

To keep up with all the action, follow #ibminnovate on Twitter, and also check out the Rational Events blog.
