CMS Expert Group

A forum where CMS analysts, thinkers, practitioners, experts and vendors can meet, set the agenda for future industry developments, provide feedback and share thoughts and ideas in an inspiring setting.

Upcoming meetings

The North American CMS Expert Group will meet next on May 7th in Philadelphia.

The European CMS Expert Group will meet next on June 5th in Prague.

Group focus

CMS topics such as usability, digital marketing, content strategy, standards, performance, implementations and technology are the main themes for the group.

Topics that impact the adoption of content management in the broader marketplace, such as mobile, social and other key trends will also be covered.

Public discussions so far:

• 8 CMS features customers want but never use
• Benefits and challenges with a consolidated Web CMS
• CMS usability: The overlooked part of digital productivity

Group profiles

If you have several years of experience, a broad range of knowledge and your working day is dedicated to one or more content management systems, e.g. as Product Manager, CTO or Content Manager, then you have the ideal profile.

Each group is limited to 20 members from the buy as well as sell-side. Seats are reserved for a mixture of vendors; large, complex and global buyers as well as analysts to achieve the right composition.

New delegates will need to be approved by existing members to ensure the right composition. J. Boye handles this process entirely.

Meeting details

Both groups meet 3 times a year, usually in February/March, May/June and November/December for a full day workshop.

Meetings are in English and J. Boye provides meeting minutes from each meeting as well as an online forum for members to continue the conversations in between the meetings.

There are expert guest speakers at most meetings to provide further input to the group. Guest speakers could be relevant customer cases, analysts or industry standard organisations.

Each meeting will result in a public document as a statement from the group intended to stir public discussion and further advance the field.

Price

A seat in the group costs EUR 1,850 or USD 2,500 for 1 year. 2 seats for the same company costs EUR 2,850 or USD 3,950.

With a seat in the group you also get 50% discount on all J. Boye events. Read more about joining a J. Boye group.

Expert moderator

Both groups are moderated by Janus Boye. Contact him if you are interested in learning more about this group or to apply for a seat.
