SEATTLE – June 20, 2012 Point B, a management consulting firm, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, the premier provider of legal services to technology, life sciences, and growth enterprises worldwide, and The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania (Wharton | San Francisco) announce the next Seattle Leadership Forum on June 28th from 7 a.m. – 9:00 a.m. at The Four Seasons. “Customer Analytics: Exploring Business Use of ‘Big Data’ in the Data-Driven Marketplace” will lay out key elements to ensure customer analytics are a strategic part of an organization’s business and marketing strategies.

 

For many corporations, the role of customer-level data is shifting from "nice to know" to "must have." Across the enterprise, everything from performance incentives, recruiting strategies, supply chain logistics and marketing messages are focused on gaining and leveraging a deep understanding of customers' behavioral patterns. Wharton Professor and Co-Director of the Wharton Customer Analytics Initiative at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Peter Fader, and Microsoft Senior Director of Business Analysis, Jarvis Bowers, will discuss this changing competitive landscape and offer real world examples of how companies can elevate the importance of customer analytics in their own organizations.
