Professionals Australasia) the theme for inForum 2011 “Communicate :
Collaborate : Innovate” is about working together to innovate in the face of
constant pressure to build knowledge, develop methods, learn new
technologies and justify an organisation’s needs. What are we doing already?
What are we, or should we be, doing differently to move forward for
tomorrow’s challenges?
inForum 2011 is all about how the information sector is, or should be,
working together and innovating for the future. External pressures will not
go away, but neither will we: innovation, communication and collaboration
are the keys to success.

meetings, networking opportunities, an optional breakfast session on leading
cross-generational teams, optional workshops, social events and a Trade
Exhibition featuring leading industry providers of relevant software,
products, storage, education, careers, training, consultancy, preservation
and recovery, safety equipment and legislative and advisory bodies. Many of
the leading industry consultants and vendors will be available to you to
consider and lobby for improvements in your own processes, systems or
services.
