Data powers Business

Informatica World Tour – Brussels

Date:	Tuesday 8 November
Time:	09:30 – 16:00
Location:	Salons Waerboom Jozef Mertensstraat 140 B-1702 Groot-Bijgaarden

Informatica World Tour – Brussels is THE event that brings together the Data Community’s brightest minds to push the boundaries of current thinking and discuss the role of data in the real-time digital enterprise of the future.

The agenda is based on the most popular sessions from the recent Informatica World event held in San Francisco. Customer speakers from Belgacom International Carrier Services and PostNL will share their experiences, while internationally acclaimed thought leader in the area of the monetisation of companies' available (big) data Tony Bosma, Luc Verbist (former CIO De Persgroep) and Informatica’s Senior Director Quality Solutions Benjamin Rund, will present the keynotes.

As organizations are going through digital transformation, it becomes clear that data is no longer a by-product from operational systems but the very fuel that powers business.

Today, companies that use data to deliver exceptional customer experiences, build great products and drive operational efficiency are the winners.

The featured-packed agenda will focus on these three business-critical imperatives:

Total customer relationship (Master Data Management)
Next-generation analytics (Big Data)
Cloud acceleration (Cloud Data Integration)

IntoData
Do the following questions also exist in your company: Which information is located where, and in which form is it stored? Which applications make use of it? How is the quality of those data and how is it secured? How is the same data used by different applications?

Nowadays, correct and efficient data management is a key condition to successful business. This is not an easy task, as information is scattered throughout the many SAPs of this world, CRM applications like Salesforce or in house databases. Which company doesn’t have critical business data stored in Excel spreadsheets? And let’s not forget the enormous flows of Big Data within and outside the company!

IntoData helps you deal with data and software silos. No more insular systems. The holistic approach of Data Integration, Data Quality and Master Data Management (MDM) is our core business.
