SAS Forum 2007 in Stockholm
An Executive Conference
Former SAS Forum International has in the past increasingly concentrated on business contents. At the same time, the demand for deeper technical insights has grown.
To address these diverging needs we’ve made a clearer distinction between two of our most important events; SAS Global Forum (formerly SUGI) and SAS Forum 2007 - An Executive Conference (previously SAS Forum International).
This year, SAS Forum International will be an Executive Conference, and will focus solely on the executive audience. Meanwhile, SAS Global Forum will be dedicated to SAS specialists and gurus.
In addition, we’re planning to cater for your needs at the local SAS Forum Belgium & Luxembourg, which will be held again in Louvain-la-Neuve in October.
