Discover emerging technologies that are available for learning and development professionals. From tablets to phones to social media, keeping track of new resources can be difficult. See how the technology in mobile devices is advancing and learn about some of the latest trends. Participants will have a chance to discuss opportunities in which these technologies can be incorporated into the future of how people learn and work.

Nguyen has more than 10 years of experience working with emerging technologies and implementing them in business settings. He has helped implement new technological approaches to learning, demonstrated an aptitude for explaining technology to people, and leveraged technology to help people connect, share and learn from one another. He recently joined Yammer as a customer success manager.
