This is an update of an earlier post on Decision Technology Events for October 2011
There are a number of great events related to Decision Management themes and technology platforms this Fall. Here’s my list so far:
- Computerworld BI & Analytics Perspectives 2011, 18-20 September, Phoenix, AZ @BIAPCW
I am giving the opening keynote “From Business Intelligence to Predictive Analytics” and moderating a panel on “Harnessing the Power of Unstructured Data, Mobile BI and Social Media – Hype or Real Value?” - Teradata Partners Conference and Expo 2-6 October, San Diego, CA #TDPUG11
This is a great conference for anyone using or considering Teradata. I assume that this year there will be a solid set of presentations on Aster Data as well given Teradata’s acquisition. Sadly I won’t be able to make it. - SAS Forum Netherlands 5 October, Amsterdam, NL #SASFNL11
SAS Netherlands annual forum with speakers on the 5th and a variety of pre- and post-conference tutorials. I am speaking on the power of decisions in analytics. - IM2011, From Information to Decisions 12 October, Copenhagen;

This also runs 29 September, Stockholm;26 October, Oslo; 10 November, London - Predictive Analytics World New York 17-21 October, New York @pawcon
