"We're excited to bring our European event overseas this year," said André Christ, co-CEO and co-founder of LeanIX. "Similar to EA Connect Day 2017 held at Adidas headquarters in Herzogenaurach, Germany, we've got a fantastic line-up of speakers for our inaugural US event and we very much look forward to engaging in discussions about practical implementation and management of modern IT architectures."

"As a participant of the last three EA Connect Days in Europe, I can say that these have been some of the most valuable industry events that I have attended," said Andreas Puke, IT Architecture Manager, AMAG. "The presentations are tailored for the unique challenges we face as Enterprise Architects. It was great to be among peers discussing the issues facing our EA practice and to learn from the global community."

Attendees will also hear from David McCandless. McCandless is a data visualization thought leader and the founder of Information is Beautiful. In his keynote address, he will share his passion for the merging of design, information, numbers, and story.
