Green Support via Cloud Service Desks

NTRglobal CEO Lluis Font will show how to adopt Green Support solutions in the Cloud

SYS-CON Events announced today that Lluis Font, CEO of NTRglobal, will be presenting at the upcoming Cloud Computing Expo Europe (www.cloudexpo-europe.com) May 18-19, 2009, in Prague, Czech Republic, the first industry-leading international Cloud Computing event outside the USA.

His session is entitled "Green SaaS - Green Support via Cloud Service Desks."

Lluis Font is responsible for all aspects of the NTRglobal business. Under his leadership and because of his focus on meeting customer needs, he has doubled revenue year-over-year since 2002. More than 17,000 businesses in 60 countries subscribe to NTRglobal on-demand solutions for remote support with NTRsupport and remote administration and IT task automation with NTRadmin. Before taking the reins at NTRglobal, Font held numerous executive positions with top consulting companies, including Price Waterhouse. He was also CEO of AGM, The Global Company, one of Spain's biggest Internet consulting firms, where he grew revenues from 3 million Euros to 15 million Euros in one year.

Green SaaS - Green Support via Cloud Service Desks
In this session, CIOs will hear how global companies and SMBs alike can assess opportunities to adopt Green Support solutions in the Cloud and make these efforts highly visible to internal and external audiences. Green Support via Cloud Service Desks with live expert human support initiatives are a win-win-win proposal: they reduce the corporate carbon footprint, they increase service levels to customers, and they significantly cut operating costs. Armed with real-world examples, the speaker will show how our industry can help reshape Green discussions beyond the manufacturing process, and offer even more evidence of the critical and strategic role service and support plays within technology firms. Technology companies are under increasing pressure to go Green. With Wall Street, environmental groups, as well as customers, stockholders, and employees all pushing Green issues with corporate executives, the trend is hard to ignore. But so far, the bulk of the attention has been on manufacturing facilities, disregarding the Green impact of other areas of the company, including IT services and customer support.
