BroadGroup Preps PoweredbyCloud, Cloud Law Summit

(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Event organizer BroadGroup (www.broad-group.com) announced on Tuesday it will host the second PoweredbyCloud 2010 (www.poweredbycloud.com) and the first international Cloud Law Summit (www.poweredbycloud.com/cloudlawsummit) in London from February 8 to 10.

First announced in November, this year’s PoweredbyCloud will feature experts and industry players from Europe and North America.

PoweredbyCloud has built a reputation for providing “strategic insight into the evolution of cloud services and business models that work,” says BroadGroup. 

In addition to the 2-day conference, the Cloud Law Summit will focus on emerging cloud law by drawing on experts from the US and Europe to discuss the implications of the Patriot Act in the United States, and EU Data Directive for enterprises. 

The summit will cover a range of other topics including privacy in the cloud, open law, financial services, cloud content and liability, negotiating contracts for Cloud Services, and how cloud law might be framed in future.

“What emerges from this important conference in terms of creating a commercial and technological perspective of cloud services and infrastructure in Europe will be of key interest to enterprises,” says Philip Low, managing director at BroadGroup, the conference researchers and producers. “The added dimension of how potentially a wide range of cloud issues will be treated legally represents the first such initiative across the region, and is also being observed from Brussels to Tokyo.”

The summit follows the second annual PoweredByCloud conference, which will be held in London on February 8 to 9 at the America Square Conference Centre.

The conference features industry leaders from Amazon, BT, Cisco, HP, IBM, and Intel.

PoweredByCloud offers both content insight and an opportunity to network with senior legal advisers, government officials, professional intermediaries, experts, technologists and enterprise leaders.
