A full house welcomed the conference led by Digimind at the BNP Paribas workshop on December 6, where they presented Competitive Intelligence strategy and systems for the financial sector. Key financial players forming the majority of the audience were greatly impressed by both the subject matter and Digimind's performance, but representatives from other fields of activity also showed their interest.
A powerful message
As this was Digimind's first presentation at a BNP Paribas workshop, Digimind wanted to present its product in a striking way, by inviting partners and customers to talk about their real experiences. Thérèse Torris (Director of Afferto Research: www.afferto.com) presented the Intelligence challenges facing companies in the financial sector, while Bertrand Blanchard (VP Strategy & Business Development) provided feedback on Société Générale GSSI's experiences implementing Digimind Evolution: both testimonies were highly appreciated by everyone and triggered much lively and valuable discussion among participants towards the end of the conference.
