SAN RAMON, CA--(Marketwire - Sep 7, 2011) - xMatters inc., the relevance engine company, is pleased to announce its annual US-based client forum to be held in Chicago, Illinois. The user forum has been named the "Relevance Revolution" by xMatters' clients who come together annually to discuss ways to utilize relevance engines in the areas of IT support, IT operations, business continuity and resilience, mass notification, emergency notification, customer communications, and other business processes.
The forum will take place at the Ritz Carlton hotel in Chicago on October 6th and 7th. It will feature six of xMatters' 900 clients who will be presenting their gains in operational efficiency and how relevance engines have enhanced their ability to instantly communicate, ensuring their businesses are resilient, no matter what. Presenters will include:
- Tammy Sachse, 3M
- James Gardner, Capital Group
- Deneen Stone, Denver International Airport
- Bell Elek, Fiserv
- Mark Anderson and Brian Palmer, Hewitt Associates
- Rick O'Dom, SunTrust Bank
Clients will be focusing on two primary applications of relevance engines: IT services -- self hosted, public, private or hybrid clouds -- and business continuity communications for business events, emergencies, and crises. Sessions will contrast traditional market approaches to these problems versus the solutions that relevance engines can provide.
In addition to the thought-leading executives from xMatters' clients above, industry experts will also be presenting including:
- David Nolan, CEO, Fusion Risk Management
- Regina Phelps, Founder, EMS Solutions
"Our US-based 'Relevance Revolution' is a chance for us to get together with our thought leading clients and discuss how relevance engines are in use around the world," said Troy McAlpin, CEO of xMatters. "We have leaders in banking, telecommunications, media, insurance business continuity, cloud computing and energy coming together talk about how to automate notification and leave mass notification in the dust where it belongs. I'm really encouraged by our panel of speakers this year and appreciate their investment and trust in xMatters."
