How to create a connected, secure office, ready for your return

Are you in the process of moving to multi-cloud?
It’s vital you don’t waste time or money on the wrong decisions. To help you plan your strategy, you need to understand the real-world challenges and opportunities that multi-cloud presents, so that your whole business can move forward with confidence.

In our virtual roundtable, together with Dell Technologies, we’ll explore:
•	the true reality of multi-cloud: not just the theory
•	what you need to consider when designing your strategy end-to-end
•	what hurdles to expect, and how to overcome them
•	what outcomes you could expect as a result.

Speakers:
•	David Simpkins, Senior manager, Hybrid cloud managed services, BT 
•	Sujoy Mukherjee, Product manager, Private cloud, BT 
•	Ian Heath, Director, EMEA service providers, Dell Technologies

The multi-cloud imperative: a best practice approach

With legacy infrastructure approaching end-of-life, and predictions that 80% of enterprises will migrate entirely away from on-premises data centres by 2025, you’re most likely already starting to put in place the steps to ensure a smooth transition.
But what’s the best approach to moving to a virtualised data centre, and how can interconnectivity help make this journey simpler for you?

In our webinar, together with Equinix, we explore the big questions: 
•	How do I approach the challenge of legacy infrastructure?
•	How can interconnectivity help me as I migrate to the cloud, and why is it so important?
•	How do I ensure security, compliance, and governance in my new environment?
•	What will my business be able to do differently, or even better as a result, and what can I learn from other companies who have already made the move?

Speakers:
•	Adrian Comley, Senior Manager, Managed Network Services, BT
•	Simon Walker, Senior Manager, Cloud Networking Solutions, BT 
•	Angie Jackson, Senior Manager DYNS Technical and Service Design, BT
•	Brenden Rawle, Director of Interconnection, EMEA, Equinix

Is the clock ticking for you to move to a virtualised data centre?

Great cloud experiences can be yours if you get the building blocks of your infrastructure, SD-WAN and security right. We’d like to share with you how we’ve done it. Spend some time with us as we examine each of these key pillars in our webinar. We’ll be looking at different types of internet connectivity, the role of cloud gateways and the importance of SASE to your solution. 

Scott Cowling, who leads our Global infrastructure portfolio will be joined by Sanjay Uppal (SVP & GM VMWare and founder of VeloCloud), Anne-Gaelle Santos (Head of BTs SD-WAN portfolio), and Paul Graham (Head of infrastructure, BT’s CTO team). Together we’ll share insight on how to choose the right core components and make those choices work for your business.

Why SD-WAN is crucial to realising the benefits of cloud

Security thinking has been moving towards Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) for some time now to protect the new dynamic perimeter. It brings together connectivity and network security into a single policy-driven service that provides consistent centrally-managed access and security from edge to edge.

Join our latest webinar in our Security insights and trend series as we share our experience and give you unique insight into:
•	the BT approach to SASE
•	how to move to SASE in the most simple and cost effective way
•	how to mitigate the risks of change.

Speakers:
•	James Todd, Security CTO, BT
•	Tristan Morgan, Director of security advisory services, BT
•	David Stark, Security portfolio director, BT

SASE: how to define the most effective strategy

The new normal has accelerated the pace of change. Digital transformation means that your existing data centre needs to deliver more.

In the next webinar of our 'Shape the future of infrastructure' series, we’ll explore:
•how to implement new technology in private data centres
•how to get cloud-like agility within your data centre
•the features of Cisco ACI and what it delivers.

Our data centre optimisation portfolio expert, Charles Greenaway, will be joined by Louise O’Neil, head of new customer sales and Gareth Furse, an account manager in solutions SP sales from Cisco to offer their views on the options available to you.

Speakers:
•Jonathan Sumner, Head of marketing, Network, Cloud & Consultancy, BT
•Louise O’Neill, Director, Banking & Financial Services, BT
•Charles Greenaway, Customer CTO, BT
•Gareth Furse, Service creation & portfolio manager, Enterprise networking, Cisco

How to shape your data centre for the new normal

As organizations shape their new future, they need flexibility and a laser-like focus on experience. That’s why many are accelerating their move to SD-WAN.

Choosing the right technology is part of the answer to a successful puzzle, but you need all the right pieces in the right places.

In the second webinar of our ‘Shape the future of infrastructure’ series, we’ll explain the other key factors you need to consider in building your solution, including everything from skills to service to security.

Our speakers have been involved in the deployment of thousands of SD-WAN sites across the globe, including Scott Cowling, who leads on our network portfolio, Anne-Gaelle Santos, our SD-WAN portfolio lead and Stephen Moss, head of service operations and dynamic network services.

How do you solve the SD-WAN puzzle?

The new normal has accelerated the pace of change. Digital transformation plans have had to move forward by months and even years.

As you shape the future of your organisation, you need to build a network infrastructure which can match it.

In the first webinar of our ‘Shape the future of infrastructure’ series, we’ll explore some recent research that shows how global organisations are shaping their infrastructure to meet ‘new normal’ demands.

We’ll also look at how our customers are searching for much more than the latest technology to create the right shape network to support their future.

Scott Cowling, who leads on our network portfolio, will be joined by Tausif Awan, head of our specialist organization, Jen Artley, our sales MD and Bola Robiti, software development research director from CCS Insight.

How to shape your network for the new normal

There’s never been a better time to consider your future network.

New technologies are redefining what a network can do. Advances in processing power, unlimited connectivity, AI and 5G are creating nimble networks that can deliver things that were previously inconceivable. 

At a recent event, prior to the pandemic, we quizzed a group of independent experts from MIT, ISG and Microsoft and shared our thoughts on how businesses are reinventing their networks and the future potential this could release. Coronavirus has only increased the need for network transformation to prepare for a new future.

Watch our video to find out what’s next for SD-WAN as it spreads to the edge devices and why evolving connectivity will inevitably impact your wider IT and workforce.

Speakers:
Patrick English, Head of Cyber DevOps, BT
Scott Cowling, Director of network solutions, BT
Scott Spiro, Senior partner development manager, Microsoft
Jeannie Ross, Principal research scientist, MIT CISR
Dave Muller, Partner, ISG

The future of connectivity

Many organisations have now implemented temporary fixes to support the new network demands driven by Coronavirus, but this could be just a short-term solution to a short-term problem. Although we face an uncertain future, we can predict some of the upcoming challenges your network may face and recommend what changes you could make today to be ready for the future.

Watch our webinar where experts Gary Barton from Global Data, together with Scott Cowling and Wouter Belmans from BT discuss:

• where your next network bottleneck could be
• how you can understand and improve the application experience for your homeworkers
• what new network technologies could prepare you for the future

How do you prepare your network for a new future?

Homeworking is here to stay, but everybody who works from home knows the frustration of poorly performing applications. At the same time IT leaders are struggling to keep their services secure and get the visibility and control they need. That’s why they’re looking to deliver the same network services they deploy in the office at home.

In our latest webinar, together with Cisco we explore:
o	why you need to think about SD-WAN at home as an option
o	different options to support different employees in your organisation
o	how the costs of the solution balance against an office solution.

Speakers:
o	Andrew Small, Digital Solutions Director, BT
o	Dominic Elliott, CTO BT global relationship, Cisco
o	Paul Crichard, Chief security technology strategist, BT
