Business Intelligence – systems and processes to translate raw data into actionable information – is rapidly becoming THE competitive tool for insurers in the 21st century. Insurance-Canada.ca, with its partner ci-Canadian Insurance Magazine, is pleased to announce its 2007 Technology Conference, which will give you the information you need to plan, develop, and implement a successful BI strategy for your organization.
Mark your calendar for March 5, 2007. We are assembling a distinguished faculty who will address such topics as:
- Data Mining: Searching for treasure in all the right places;
- Effectively analyzing and integrating external and internal data sources;
- Customer loyalty and mass customization;
- Effective enterprise business intelligence toolsets: serving line workers, managers, and executives their information their way;
- Transparency vs. privacy: Walking the line;
- And much, much more.
