With a bright idea and a credit card, hundreds of startups and small businesses have launched and scaled in the last few years thanks to affordable cloud solutions like Amazon, Box, and Salesforce. The cloud continues to deliver these advantages today, but it now has credible story to tell prospective customers in the enterprise.

CloudBeat 2013 -- VentureBeat's premiere event on enterprise cloud adoption, September 9-10 in San Francisco -- will track the growing maturity of the cloud with two days of high-level discussions, customer case studies, breakout sessions, and exclusive announcements.

This year's program features new cases from PayPal, NASA, Netflix, Pivotal, LinkedIn, General Electric, and IBM, to name a few.

Why CloudBeat?
Other cloud events focus on legacy technologies and incremental change and tend to let the cloud “vendors” do the talking.

CloudBeat, by contrast, puts the customers front and center. Their discussions with vendors and other experts unearth rare lessons on adoption, providing insights and actionable data on new cloud technologies, what's working, who’s buying what, and where the industry is going.
