On June 4, Intertrust
Technologies
, the leading provider of data rights management
technology, will host Transforming Transformers, the world’s first
thought leadership conference on the data-driven transformation of the
energy industry. The one-day event, to be held in Dusseldorf, will bring
together global energy and IT industry leaders to examine the
convergence of energy, IoT and big data management. They will discuss
how new and innovative digital solutions sweeping the energy sector will
continue to impact business models and enable 21st Century energy
services that are environmentally friendly and operate at higher
margins. Speakers will explore topics in strategy, transformation,
entrepreneurship, disruptive innovation portfolio management, digital
privacy regulation, renewable energy and data analytics. The roster
includes E.ON CEO, Johannes Teyssen, Origin Energy CEO, Frank Calabria,
as well as top executives from TEPCO, innogy, Intertrust, and other
leading companies.

“Every electron consumed generates information,” said Talal G. Shamoon,
Intertrust’s chief executive officer. “With IoT and distributed big data
systems becoming pervasive, it’s time for energy leaders to harness bits
the way they once harnessed electrons. Done right, this will lead to
huge margin improvements via the creation of internet-based power
companies. Done wrong, or ignored, the internet will disrupt and destroy
defensive actors. This is a must-attend event for energy executives
wishing to lead the transformation avant garde.”

The energy industry is undergoing a tectonic shift driven by the
aggressive introduction of renewable energy, deregulation and increased
attention to climate impact. This shift is further fueled by the
internet and new advances in high-performance and cloud computing, IoT,
big data, machine learning and other advanced AI technologies.
Transforming Transformers will highlight how these trends are driving
change in the energy industry, and explain what major energy leaders are
doing to harness the power of data-driven energy, and disrupting their
business models as data becomes the most valuable asset to drive growth.
