Time	Topic & Speaker	Location
9:45 am - 10:30 am	END BSM NOW Edwin Wong, Head of Product Management, Atlassian & Amita Abraham, Head of Product Marketing, Atlassian Bad Service Management (BSM) is an affliction that has plagued enterprises. BSM flares up when development, operations, and business teams work in silos. The symptoms? Bloated budgets, irritable teammates, dizziness from complex setups, nausea from outdated interfaces, blurred vision, and in some cases, even death (of deployments that fail to scale). The best-known cure is to replace legacy ITSM. Discover the latest Jira Service Management advancements, and hear how other enterprises have joined the fight to end BSM now.	Keynote Theater
12:30 pm - 1:15 pm PDT	Incident management in space: How to create an out-of-this-world service desk Ed Gaile, Appfire Collaborating on ITSM can often feel like bringing teams from completely different planets together. The tendency for IT, support, and development to work in silos has serious business implications, especially in incident management. Watch Ed and Nick from Appfire as they walk you through a demo of a Ground Control team supporting space exploration missions. You’ll learn how to modernize your ITSM by leveraging Jira and other tools for an out-of-this-world service desk.	Expo Lab - Lunch & Learn B
