Risky Business In San Diego

Today, our CEO, Mat Fogarty, took to the stage to present at the Financial Forecasting and Planning Summit in sunny San Diego.

The goal of the Summit is to bring together leaders in the industry to discuss innovation and financial planning methods that are key to future business success. Presentations during the conference focus on new technologies and solutions, and how these developments are revolutionizing the modern business world.

For those of you following from home, Mat’s presentation, titled “The Game of Risk: Leveraging Collective Intelligence for Successful Product Introductions,” spoke to the challenges associated with planning and bringing a new product to market.

According to IDC, market leaders get 43% of their profits from new products. To ensure success, companies must have reliable insight into risks as well as opportunities. Mat discussed ways companies can leverage the wisdom of their employees to produce timely, unbiased, and accurate forecasts that inform key decisions around new product introduction.
