Analytics and Data Summit (Formerly BIWA Summit) Announces Event Date and Conference Content Submission Deadline Changes

Redwood Shores, CA, November 10, 2017 --(PR.com)-- BIWA User Community announced today that it will change the date of its flagship event, Analytics and Data Summit (formerly known as BIWA Summit) to address the need for its growing event audience and focus.

The event was historically held in January each year. The Analytics and Data Summit has been moved to March 20–22, 2018, at the Oracle Conference Center in Redwood Shores, CA, to accommodate the Oracle Conference Center schedule. The venue provides a fantastic value, and a unique opportunity to work with Oracle on advanced content for the conference.

Since the conference is hosted later this year, the conference content submission deadline has been extended to allow for additional time to create speaking submissions. The new content submission deadline is December 3, 2017.

Dan Vlamis, Analytics and Data Summit co-chair and President of Vlamis Software Solutions said, “We are thrilled with the progress our organization has made in terms of membership and attendee growth for the Analytics and Data Summit. We expect that the date change will give us more time to get the word out about the conference.”
