Sessions Bring Together Business Leaders to Discuss Pricing Strategies that Drive Profits in a Downturn
Palo Alto, Calif. – June 17, 2009 – Vendavo®, the leading provider of business-to-business price management and optimization solutions, today announced the success of the company's Executive Forums on Pricing in San Jose, Chicago and New York. During May and June 2009, more than 150 executives from 50 industry-leading business-to-business companies came together for productive, interactive sessions where they discussed how companies can leverage strategic pricing solutions to solve unique business problems and improve margins.
The events each kicked off with a keynote from Vendavo's CEO Al Crites, in which he introduced strategic pricing solutions and shared real-world case studies. The agenda included presentations from Vendavo customers across high tech, manufacturing and process industries. During afternoon roundtables, executives interacted directly with their peers to discuss topics ranging from complex pricing challenges and organizing for pricing success, to building a business case for pricing within an organization.
"The Vendavo Executive Forum was an extremely valuable investment of our time. It was great to learn about pricing best practices as they relate to the current economy and to interact with peers and exchange ideas related to pricing solutions. We came away with excellent pricing insights that we can apply immediately to see significant gains," said Kim Appleton, corporate pricing manager, Freescale Semiconductor.
Vendavo will host its European Executive Forum on Pricing in October.
