Hi Waz!!

Yes, we need to have one in Australia. I will pass that on. This means you have no choice but to come to Summit in Texas.

Waz, if my calculations are correct you better get a speed boat...because paddling would take you approximately 132 days from say Melbourne through the Panama Canal and into Galveston Texas then up to Grapevine via train. Summit is in 102 days. No rest for the weary Smiler

Exciting Contest Announcement - Show Me The DataViz!
On behalf of Gerry Cohen, President of Information Builders, I would like to invite to you participate and show us how you're harnessing the power of data visualizations with the the latest version (8.02) of InfoAssist+. The top three picks will take home a set of Wireless Beats headphones! You do not have to be present at Summit.

For this contest, we’re interested in understanding the insights you derive using the data visualization capabilities of InfoAssst+. The esteemed industry analysts attending Summit will review the submissions and select three to feature during my Summit keynote. Additionally, the committee’s top three (3) picks will take home a set of Wireless Beats headphones.

Submissions will be evaluated based on the visualization, derived insights, and business results realized with InfoAssist+ 8.02. By all means, if you can’t pick just one use case, we'll gladly accept multiple submissions; however, each individual can win a maximum of one prize. Not sure where to start? Contact your local Sales Engineer – they are there to help!

Submit Your Visualization in 2 Simple Steps

1. For a chance to win, submit a screenshot here during the month of May.

2. Include your name, title, company name, as well as a brief description of how InfoAssist+ 8.02 has helped your organization.

To be eligible you must live in the U.S. or Canada, be over 21, and be a current customer or partner. Information Builders’ employees are not eligible. International submissions are also welcome, but are ineligible for a prize. You can find our complete official rules here.
