Dear Colleagues, On behalf of DAMA International, I am pleased to announce the 2011 DAMA International Europe Conference 7-9 November 2011. This is our 13th European Conference in collaboration with the Data Quality and Data Warehouse/Business Intelligence conferences. For 2011 DAMA will be chairing the largest and most authoritative data management gathering in Europe. We are particularly excited that our Keynote speaker will be Michael Gunton, Executive Producer of the BBC Natural History Unit which produced the ten-part series “LIFE”. Mr. Gunton will give us the story behind the scenes—how the filming was done, how 2,000 hours of film was edited to 10 hours and how the footage has been catalogued and managed for future use. DAMA is host to seven tutorial sessions ranging from an all day session on “Practical Enterprise & Data Architecture” with Malcolm Chisholm to Mike Ferguson’s “Data Management in a Cloud Computing Environment” and the ever-entertaining Steve Hoberman’s “Evaluating Agile using Legos”. Peter Aiken will discuss the “Next Generation Investment in Metadata” while Keith Gordon gives his view on “Data Modelling for Business Information” and Dagna Gaythorpe presents “Pragmatic Data Management”. Attending this conference gives you the most effective way to find out what is working in other organizations, discover which vendors have the latest tools and techniques, and hear how our profession is growing and changing to accommodate new ideas and strategies such as Big Data, Business Semantics, Social Media and even a new Data Type. Networking with other professional colleagues is often cited as one of the most important reasons to attend. You will find that other attendees, along with our speakers, are accessible and willing to share their ideas and solutions throughout the conference. The event features speakers from many countries, with a wide variety of backgrounds, experience and knowledge. This year's conference with 16 Data Management
sessions in addition to the afore-mentioned tutorials and keynote, will help you
learn the techniques, tools, methods, and processes which have been successful
for others and can be implemented in your own organization . Delegates will
receive a CD-ROM containing all tutorials and all conference track sessions for
the entire event which will be a great resource as you return to your
organization. I hope you will join me and your colleagues for a very exciting,
informative and rewarding experience starting November 7, 2011 in London.

Dear Colleague On behalf of IRM UK Strategic Training in the UK and myself, thank you for your interest in the European Data Warehouse & Business Intelligence Conference Europe 2011. The previous editions of the Data Warehouse & Business Intelligence European Conference were a big success, more than 200 delegates showed up. Evaluations showed that the attendees were very pleased with the selected speakers, topics and setup of the conference. The 2011 edition is aimed at all aspects of data warehousing and business intelligence. The DW&BI conference will focus on aspects such as: trends, design guidelines, product overviews and comparisons, best practices, and new evolving technologies. In addition, this 2011 edition will again be co-located with the DAMA International European Conference and Information Quality Conference. This has proved, over the past years, an extremely effective and rewarding combination for participants. We aim to ensure that the joint conference is a wonderful opportunity for those interested in data warehousing, business intelligence, information quality, data modelling, and data management to meet and exchange experiences as well as to hear top-notch speakers concentrate on this essential area of IT. Participants of all our past conferences have particularly praised the concentration upon these topics. Two parallel tracks are devoted to data warehousing and business intelligence. Like the previous years we have invited world renowned speakers, including Shaku Atre, Steve Hoberman, Mike Ferguson and Frank Buytendijk. We have also continued the successful approach we adopted over previous years, whereby the first day offers you the opportunity to attend tutorials on the true cost of business intelligence, dimensional modelling fundamentals, data warehouse appliances, and an overview of the various business intelligence architectures. These tutorials provide a foundation for the following two days. The selected topics form a balanced mix. Some are case studies, others are more generic sessions, some topics are more classic and others deal with modern issues. All of them are presented by independent speakers. Together, the program we have constructed for you provides an unparalleled source of information on data warehousing and business intelligence in real life, with examples of the experiences of practitioners. It features a selection of international speakers from both the USA and Europe with a proven reputation both for their ability to inform and educate, but also entertain. This conference will also provide you with an ideal opportunity to meet other delegates with their own problems, experiences and solutions. We all hope you will join us for what promises again to be an exciting and immensely valuable experience. We hope you value the emphasis on the new areas where business intelligence will play a crucial role. We look forward to seeing you in London in November.
