Gartner Announces Business Intelligence Summit 2010
(NewDesignWorld Press Release Center) -- STAMFORD, Conn., —
Gathering and using business information are critical to driving growth. With nearly half of organizations anticipating that business intelligence (BI) budgets will increase in the next 12 months, it is vital that investments are deployed that build - and develop - the use of these investments in the business.
New patterns The world has dramatically changed in the last two years. Global markets are more interconnected and volatile, the pace of change is faster, and traditional relationships have shifted dramatically. Gartner’s new research shows that in this new environment, the ability to detect, anticipate and act quickly and effectively on “business patterns” is critical to building competitive advantage.
New growth and business value In 2010, organizations will continue to focus on cost and efficiency, but will need to start investing again in powering strong and sustainable business growth. Two capabilities will be critical: strong performance management, and the ability to deliver actionable business insights from good data. BI, Analytics and PM initiatives will play a very significant role in identifying, and effectively pursuing, business and performance opportunities.
The Gartner BI Summit will provide strategies and solutions to help you ensure that BI, Analytics and Performance Management, are adopted, supported and valued across your organization.
Hot Topics include:
* Creating a successful BI strategy
* Corporate performance management best practices
* New BI business models and Pattern-Based Strategy
* Data and content in the cloud
* New delivery models: open-source BI and BI as a service
* The high-performing data warehouse
* Data quality and data integration convergence
Across four tracks, and a variety of learning & networking environments, the Summit will provide both the latest thinking from Gartner, as well as “how to” real world advice to help business and IT leaders solve their specific issues.
What’s New:
* Brand new research on business patterns, BI business models, BI emerging technologies, analytics, Enterprise Information Management
* Magic Quadrant Power Session & Mega Vendor Comparison Power Session
* Rapid-fire sessions: shorter, faster-paced, more interactive sessions to discuss some of the hot topics at the conference.
Keynotes:
* Gary Hamel, Director, Management Lab, “the world’s most important business thinker” according to the Wall Street Journal
