ExhibitionsTDWI World Conferences

TDWI World Conferences are

an ideal way to connect directly

with a highly targeted group of BI and DW

professionals looking to share knowledge and

learn about what is shaping the future of the

industry. In addition to receiving an in-depth

BI and DW education, attendees are evaluating

and making purchasing decisions on new

products and technologies to integrate within

their organizations.

TDWI’s Conference Program TDWI World Conferences feature a unique program

of top-notch instructors, full- and half-day courses,

one-on-one consulting, peer networking, and an

active Exhibit Hall featuring the latest products and

technologies. Each TDWI World Conference provides

a comprehensive and highly relevant lineup of

courses, attracting a highly qualifi ed audience of

BI decision makers.

In addition to a core program of classes ranging

from BI fundamentals to business analytics, TDWI

World Conferences focus on enhancing the line

of communication between business and IT. By

removing this communication gap, organizations

can better leverage their BI initiatives and exploit

information for business gain.

The Executive Program from TDWIThe semi-annual Executive

Program from TDWI brings a

pre-qualifi ed group of high-level

BI decision makers together for

case studies, panel discussions,

and round tables. This event is

co-located at TDWI World Conferences. Sponsorship

opportunities are available.Co

TDWI Conference AttendeesRecent events have had as many as 900 registered

conference attendees. We allow only paid

conference attendees and TDWI Members into the

Exhibit Hall. The result is quality—not just quantity.

Don’t waste your valuable time sifting through

crowds of unqualifi ed attendees. Let us show you

the rewards of dealing with highly targeted, qualifi ed

BI and DW professionals. Solution providers who

have participated in past conferences tell us that

TDWI conferences provide greater value than any

other BI and DW event in the industry. The high

caliber of attendees, and the quality of the leads,

prompts many solution sponsors to exhibit at

multiple shows, year after year.

TDWI’s Annual Poster for 2007Performance Dashboards

TDWI’s 2007 technology poster deals with perfor-

mance dashboards and their role in aligning business

activities and processes with strategy objectives.

Performance dashboards consist of business and

technical architectures which enable users to monitor

their progress towards achieving business objectives.

Metrics measure performance in key areas against

targets and goals defi ned in the business plan, and

it’s these indicators that create the visual monitoring

aspect of a performance dashboard.

This poster graphically illustrates performance

dashboard architectures and defi nes stakeholders,

strategy, tactics, semantics, and metrics. This piece

is distributed to 100,000+ BI and DW professionals

and is a great opportunity to gain exposure for your

brand and products. Sponsorship includes logo and

company/product description with a leads program

which averages 700 leads.

TDWI Monograph SeriesLeverage TDWI’s extensive research network and gain

visibility for your organization with a TDWI Monograph. Our

Monograph series explores a broad range of new and

emerging topics in BI. Monographs provide in-depth insight

into the signifi cance of new and emerging technologies

and will address specifi c benefi ts, critical success factors,

techniques, and challenges related to each topic. Each paper

provides vendor-neutral coverage of a topic; however, the

sponsoring vendor will be able to provide input to the outline

and report drafts, and receives the fi nal paper for distribution

to prospects and customers. Each TDWI Monograph is

available for sponsorship by only one solution provider. A

list of potential Monograph topics TDWI would like to cover

in 2007, along with sponsorship benefi ts, is available upon

request. Each Monograph will feature an 8–12 page research

paper distrib uted online to TDWI Members and industry

professionals worldwide. We have limited openings, so please

Certifi cation Does your team have the right credentials?

BI is a fi eld rich with opportunities for both

individuals and organizations. But as the

opportunities expand, so does the competition. This

is where a meaningful and credible certifi cation

comes in. The Certifi ed Business Intelligence

Professional (CBIP) credential is a true test-based

certifi cation program that challenges and tests

a candidate’s knowledge and skills within one of

fi ve specialty areas: Leadership & Management,

Business Analytics, Data Analysis & Design, Data

Integration, and Administration & Technology.

CBIP is becoming the standard for certifi cation in

the BI space, and more and more organizations are

recognizing its value.

For more information about how the CBIP program can benefi t your organization, visit www.cbipro.com or contact Jennifer Hay at [email protected].

Seven of our staff members recently achieved CBIP certifi cation. For our consultants, CBIP is an industry acknowledgment of their many years of dedication and hard work in showing our clients how to protect and leverage their corporate data asset.
