Join us at the 2016 Esri Business Summit and discover how a location strategy can apply context to business information and analytics so that organizations obtain the insight they need to compete and perform at top-notch levels.
The Business Summit is the ideal forum for executives and technical professionals to engage with peers from the global commercial community, learn from companies that have successfully implemented a location strategy, and sit down with Esri business managers to map out a game plan for success.
Experience the Business Summit and take away value. Here's what Jon Voorhees, SVP of retail distribution, Bank of America, has to say:
“One of the things I've learned over the last couple days is [that], while we may be ahead of most of our competitors, we are so far behind [in] where technology can [take] us today. And we've got to catch up, because someone's going to pass us in their ability to think better; have better insight; and therefore make better, faster decisions. And so we've got to get back to it. We can't get complacent. [Esri has] created so many new tools that 15 years ago, when I started with the bank, we could only dream of.”
