Monday, August 14th, 2017

itelligence, Inc. is pleased to announce the speaker line-up for its upcoming SAP co-sponsored finance workshop in Atlanta on August 16, 2017. The event will take place at SAP's office at 3500 Lenox Rd NE, Suite G2 in Atlanta.

Stephen Collins, Senior Consultant, Business Reporting Systems at Tech Data Corporation, will present Tech Data's digital finance transformation story. Headquartered in Clearwater, Florida, Tech Data is one of the world's largest distributors of IT products and services. Tech Data began its journey with SAP several years ago when they switched from Hyperion to SAP's Business Planning and Consolidation. Their finance transformation has taken them through merger and acquisition activity, as well as tremendous company growth as a Fortune 500 Company.

In addition, Mark Burke, Senior Director, EPM & Finance Center of Excellence at SAP, will deliver the keynote address how data is transforming and modernizing finance. He will discuss how SAP is helping customers adapt to today's dynamic business environment and how this change is being led by the finance department. Also included in this workshop will be a road-mapping presentation on SAP Cloud for Analytics and SAP BPC, including the most recent announcement of BPC 11.0, version for SAP BW/4HANA.

Attendees will network with Collins and Burke throughout the day, as well as industry peers from other organizations. They will participate in hands-on labs using SAP BPC and SAP Analytics Cloud to visualize an end-to-end finance story line, using a single finance system to transact, analyze and plan. There is still time to register to attend. The Atlanta workshop kicks off itelligence's four-event series, which will also travel to Palo Alto, CA on August 23; Chicago, IL on September 12; and Burlington, MA on September 14.
