Blue Prism to Host Andrew McAfee Book Signing at Leading Shared Services and Outsourcing Event

Blue Prism, the leading developer of enterprise robotic process automation (ERPA) software, today announced its participation in the 19^th Annual Shared Services and Outsourcing (SS&O) Week, taking place March 9-12, 2015 in Orlando, FL. On Tuesday, March 10 at 3 p.m., Blue Prism will host a book signing by Andrew McAfee (News - Alert), principal research scientist at MIT and author of The Second Machine Age: Work, Progress and Prosperity in a Time of Brilliant Technologies. Blue Prism shares McAfee's vision for a more innovative and productive future driven by automation, which it views as a huge opportunity for ERPA technology in the shared services and outsourcing markets.

SS&O Week, hosted by the Shared Services and Outsourcing Network, is the premier event for industry professionals, drawing more than 800 shared services, global business services, outsourcing and transformation decision makers. Attendees have the opportunity to listen to and converse with industry thought leaders and fellow practitioners to identify new SS&O strategies for effective business management. Many industry professionals are looking to next-generation technology, like ERPA, to achieve the innovation the industry now demands. By deploying such technology, SS&O organizations can deliver cost efficiencies, service improvement and better customer experiences.

Prior to the book signing, McAfee will discuss the benefits of incorporating technology - and specifically automation technology - during his "Big Idea" keynote address, happening at 2:10 p.m. Drawing on his findings about technology's impact on business and the larger economy, he will explain the opportunities available for SS&O professionals through automated service deployment.

"Business evolution is essential for keeping pace in today's rapidly-changing business climate," said Alastair Bathgate, CEO, Blue Prism. "With new technologies constantly emerging, SS&O organizations have boundless opportunities to innovate, optimize their business performance and claim their stake in the market. Having seen first-hand the impact that ERPA can have on SS&O company success, we fully support McAfee's advocacy for tech in business."
