The importance of industry events and collaboration

Industry events have long been an essential tool for organisations to bring professionals together to share interests, explore issues and generate new ideas, which very often leads to further collaboration and innovation. 

In recent times, the challenging economic conditions have prompted organisations to re-examine how they conduct existing business and generate new opportunities to grow.  Many organisations have looked to cut back on both attending and hosting events as cost rationalisation take priority. 

Experian recognises the benefit that events can bring to our clients and we have looked to provide a range of events to present our knowledge across different regions on a variety of subject matter, offering a platform to different markets to gather to discuss key issues.

This year alone, Experian have supported events in countries such as: Belarus, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Dubai, Finland, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Turkey, UK, and the USA. These events have been extremely diverse in terms of format and content, from small roundtable events such as the ‘Fraud data sharing in the automotive sector’ event held back in June to established industry events such as the 4th edition of the International Telecom Forum held recently.

What’s coming next?

9th Experian International Credit Risk Forum (Czech Republic) - 19 - 20 November 2009, Prague.

Designed around credit risk management leading practices and pioneering thinking in decision analytics, the annual International Credit Risk Forum takes place this year in Prague on 19-20 November and will host prestigious industry speakers.
