    “We have witnessed the fundamental changes in the way we do business, brought on by digital disruption. Increasingly, organizations are re-evaluating the way they leverage and manage their enterprise content to accomplish those goals,” said Allison Lloyd, Editor of DOCUMENT Strategy Media and Vice President of Conference Programming at DSF ’18. “Five years ago, we understood this imperative along with the vast array of content an organization holds, leading us to launch our information management program with Doculabs. Every year, Doculabs gathers 20+ top Fortune 500 companies to spearhead discussions straight from the trenches.”

    “We are delighted to continue and strengthen our partnership as an advisor for DSF ‘18," said Joe Shepley, Vice President and Practice Leader at Doculabs in Chicago. "Increasingly, we see the future of enterprise content management (ECM) and the future of information security as part and parcel of the same effort. When organizations successfully keep their information house in order, there's a triple benefit: business efficiency, a platform for growth and innovation, and effective security and risk avoidance. This is why we’ve built our program around real-world professionals who are tackling these problems day-to-day and the key solution providers who are delivering products that address this increasingly important domain.”

    Doculabs will produce two tracks at DSF ’18, their annual “Information Management Strategy” track and a second track focused on emerging trends and technologies called, “Transformation in Information Management.”

    In 2018, the DSF Conference will focus on three emerging themes:
    • Disruptive Technologies
    • Transforming Processes
    • The Changing Regulatory Landscape
