Event Format
Presentations
A TDWI Solution Summit offers business and technical presentations about the role of analytics in today’s enterprises. You will hear early adopters discuss best practices and pitfalls, road maps and architectures, and business benefits. You will also hear leading experts discuss trends and market dynamics, and solution providers will reveal product road maps and differentiators.
Roundtable Sessions
Roundtable sessions are small group discussions led by Summit sponsors that are designed to help business and IT executives accelerate their research about analytical solutions and establish high-level contacts with senior executives of leading solution providers. The discussions may revolve around a customer case study or be an open forum to discuss specific attendee questions or concerns.
One-on-One Meetings
TDWI Solution Summits enable attendees to hold one-on-one meetings with other attendees and solution providers. The meetings are a great way to expand on a discussion triggered by a presentation or roundtable session, or facilitate a business relationship. Attendees can schedule meetings in advance through TDWI’s online meeting system or at the event itself.
Solution Showcase (Exhibit Hall)
The Solution Showcase offers attendees a first-hand look at a myriad of analytical solutions, ranging from databases and data processing systems to statistical software and analytical applications.
Networking and Industry Awards
Other event highlights include a welcome reception, daily networking breakfasts and luncheons, and other special networking programs. On the final afternoon, TDWI will present awards to outstanding solution providers and case study presentations as voted on by attendees.
