PEX Week LIVE: Solutions For Process Professionals
Add bookmark
It’s been all hand on deck here in London as PEX Week Europe opened today with a series of workshops and the official opening of what we call the "Solutions Hall" (after all, we like to focus on the positive here at PEX.)
Headline exhibitors this year include business technology service providers GenPact , BPM software provider Software AG, and OpenText,experts in Enterprise Content Management. And of course, our "Solutions Hall" had a wide selection of exhibitors including software providers, training experts and consulting service providers.
The final round of judging for our European Process Excellence awards was also taking place today. That’s where I spent most of my time talking to the judges and some of the finalists to prepare a video package that we’ll show during the awards announcement tomorrow night. One dedicated finalist even took time off from his honeymoon to fly from Turkey to London for the day to attend the judging interviews. What dedication to process excellence (although we didn't discuss what his new wife thought of the matter).
The main conference opens tomorrow with a State of the Industry Address from Connie Moore, VP Research at Forrester Research. Tomorrow night we’ll also be announcing the winners of this year’s awards European awards. A full list of finalists for this year’s European awards can be seen here. http://www.processexcellencelondon.co.uk/Event.aspx?id=747996
