Dear EA professional,
With spring coming up, it is time to present you the next Architect Café on Thursday 10th of May.
Ever wondered how EA can contribute to innovation? Also, how to bring innovation to existing EA practices? Or do you rather think of EA and innovation as a contradiction in itself?
Come and find out by participating in our interesting and fun workshop!
Deloitte Belgium has run for several years now “Innovation Weeks” for several clients. Our Deloitte innovation services assist and advise clients on their innovation journey, from ideation to implementation to assessment. The facilitators will bring these concepts now to EA.
This highly interactive session will be facilitated by 4 Deloitte EA practitioners: Philip Van Langenhove, Koert Declercq, Michel Dirkx and Thomas Olyslaegers.
AE will be the host of this Architect Café.
The Architect Café will be held in the AE offices in Haasrode. Doors are open as from 17h30 and the presentations will be held from 18h to 20h00 (with networking event after the presentations). If you would like to register, please click here.
We are always looking for interesting presentations, valuable case studies and possible hosting locations. Should you have any suggestions, please let us know.

A few pictures taken at the EA Cafe 14 about Archimate 2.0:
ArchiMate® is the open standard modeling language for Enterprise Architecture, maintained by The Open Group. In this presentation, we explain the basics of the new 2.0 version of the ArchiMate language, including the two extensions (Motivation & Implementation and migration) that are part of the ArchiMate 2.0 standard.
In the presentation, we also show how it fully complements the TOGAF® method for EA development. Based on snapshots from case experiences from different companies, we illustrate the use and advantages of ArchiMate.
Intended audience: Enterprise architects, business architects, IT architects, (IT) managers, CIO’s, as well as everyone interested in TOGAF, ArchiMate and enterprise architecture
