Apptio’s Annual TBM Conference Races Back to Austin with Focus on Best Practices and Emerging Trends in Technology Business Management, FinOps, and Agile Delivery
BELLEVUE, WA – Oct. 4, 2023 – Apptio, a leading technology spend and value management company, in partnership with the TBM Council, today announced it will host its 11th annual Technology Business Management Conference (TBMC) in Austin, Texas, October 23-26, 2023, at the Fairmont Austin. TBMC is the preeminent gathering of CIOs, CFOs, and other technology leaders, collaborating to advance innovation while aligning all technology investments to business value.
This year, FinOps CloudyCon is returning as the industry’s first FinOps conference. CloudyCon will serve as an integrated event within TBM Conference 2023. Designed for FinOps enthusiasts, practitioners and Apptio Cloudability users, CloudyCon will include content and labs focused on cloud cost and operations management.
At the global in-person event, attendees will hear from peers about their TBM journeys and best practices – from those just beginning to implement TBM and focused on cost transparency to organizations deploying a cloud-first strategy with FinOps processes to others pursuing portfolio management with agile methodologies. Consistent throughout is the main theme of TBM and the TBM Council – to align an organization’s technology spend and priorities to business strategy and value.
“Today, every company is a technology company, and we understand that technology is no longer the realm of just IT, but the responsibility of all organizational leaders and function,” said Apptio CEO and co-founder, Sunny Gupta. “This year’s conference theme is ‘Fuel the Future’ as we take TBM to the next level to address all technology investments in all organizations. We look forward to welcoming key industry leaders to discuss and act on new ways to fund innovation and collaborate on critical technology investments.”
