Driving Retail Profit with Visualization Technology

image I wanted to bump up the promotion of an upcoming web cast, "Driving Retail Profit with Visualization Technology" that would be interesting to folks in the retail vertical. The idea is that mapping (ehem, Virtual Earth mapping) is becoming more prevalent in the things people do and geospatial data analysis and visualization is coming to the forefront in identifying areas of interest for plotting your locations, connecting locally and extending your reach into the market. So, if you're in the retail industry and have an interest in learning about how mapping is playing an important role, tune into the web cast. Paula and Deena will be giving the presentation, but I'll sitting there with them in case someone pipes in with a technical question...you know who you are! This is a business focused web cast, so you techies who read my blog, pass this on to the suits.

Here are the PR details:
