This combined expert group brings together architects, business analysts and portfolio managers to exchange knowledge, experiences and best practices at the intersection of business and IT. Participants share practical insights on stakeholder management, business alignment, benefits management, prioritisation, decision-making, agile ways of working, and the transition from project-based to product-oriented operating models. Topics such as architecture, modelling, visualisation, tooling and strategic portfolio management are also explored. The central challenge: how can we create greater agility, alignment and value for the organisation together? Share your experiences and learn from your peers!
