Thomson Reuters recently hosted two technology conferences designed to showcase the latest trends and technology buzz impacting the market, as well as highlighting Thomson Reuters innovative technology, ranging from mobile to artificial intelligence, search and machine learning.
Attendees of the Thomson Reuters Technology Conference 2012 enjoyed one of many sessions.
In early January, the company hosted an internal technology conference drawing nearly 1,000 employees. The external technology conference was hosted about a week later and around 300 technologists spent the day on the Eagan campus.
Attendees were offered numerous sessions that included such topics as mobile web versus mobile apps, the cloud, collaboration, Android versus iOS development, and more. During the internal conference, James Powell, chief technology officer for Thomson Reuters, gave the keynote address about the central role of technology at Thomson Reuters.
At the external conference, attendees received a keynote address from Carolyn Parnell, chief information officer for the State of Minnesota. She discussed the issues facing the state surrounding consolidation and virtualization of the IT function, as well as how innovation is needed to succeed.
The panels featured leading technologists from Thomson Reuters, including Bob Schukai, Dan Bennett, Brian Quinn and Dr. Khalid Al-Kofahi. Other notable presenters included: Dr. Abhishek Chandra, University of Minnesota; Chris Derner, Informatica; John R. Fox, SWAT Solutions; and Dr. Jamshid Vayghan, IBM.
During each conference, Thomson Reuters hosted a coding competition where attendees could test their skills against their peers and win some great prizes.

With the launch of the Thomson Reuters 2011 Top 100 Global InnovatorSM program, Thomson Reuters has recognized the companies and institutions that lead the world in innovation activity.
The 100 global innovator companies are geographically dispersed, with representation from the U.S., Asia, and Europe. The methodology for choosing the global innovators is based on four principle criteria: patent approval success rate, global reach of patent portfolio, patent influence in terms of citations and overall patent volume.
David Brown, president of the IP Solutions business of Thomson Reuters defines innovation as “a means of growth and prosperity for companies and nations seeking to overcome sluggish economies and achieve competitive advantage.”
The launch of the program has received much deserved attention from various media sources around the country, including the Economist, The New York Times, and USA Today, to name just a few.
To learn more about the program, tune in to the podcast below where we speak with Bob Stembridge, Intellectual Property analyst at Thomson Reuters to learn more about the program.
