1:30 pm - 3:00 pm Understanding the Real Value of #APIs Beyond Just #Monetization
Mr Chun Man Hui - Regional Principal Architect, Software AG
Having the right kind of commerce API is critical to thrive in the new subscription economy. However, it is wrong to assume that this is what all API strategies need to look like. The truth for most businesses, as Brian Walker of Forrester Research points out, is that the internal benefit of owning and operating a commerce API usually far exceeds just monetization.

Join this session as we discuss the three dimensions of the value of APIs to help you formulate compelling business cases for your API projects.
