To survive the down economic times, companies of all stripes
looked internally, cut costs and learned to do more with less. But
to return to growth, they must take an external view and figure out
how to manage the interconnected web of relationships on which
their businesses now depend. On October 12, Ariba, Inc. (Nasdaq:
ARBA), the leading provider of collaborative business commerce
solutions, will kick off Ariba Commerce Summits, a global series of
events designed to arm companies with the insights and best
practices needed to do just this. The series will begin in Atlanta
and continue through the remainder of the year with events in New
York City, Chicago, San Francisco, Dallas, Boston, London and
more.
“As companies move to gain competitive advantage, the lines
between what’s insourced and outsourced become increasingly
blurred,” said Tim Minahan, Chief Marketing Officer, Ariba. “As a
result, enterprises can no longer operate under the mindset that
they are a single entity and that their business will run
itself.”
The enterprise as it has traditionally been known is dead. To
succeed in today’s business environment, companies must execute
processes not just within their organizations, but across the
entire value chain. They must leverage not just internal knowledge,
but intelligence networks that are developed through communities.
And they must tap insights and best practices that enable them to
do things not just faster, but better.
“The future of business commerce hinges on successful
interactions among everyone who participates – from buyers and
sellers to banks,” Minahan continued. “And it will be driven by
solutions that provide access to communities and intelligence
companies can leverage to ensure they are doing business with the
best trading partners, getting best value and maximizing cash.
Ariba Commerce Summits are an ideal venue for learning about these
solutions and developing plans to put them into action and quickly
deliver results.”
Through dynamic keynote presentations, interactive panel
discussions, targeted breakout sessions and informal networking
forums, Ariba Commerce Summits provide executives and practitioners
across procurement, finance, AP/ treasury, legal, IT and sales and
marketing with the intelligence and insights needed to become more
connected, efficient and informed, and in the process, deliver
improved productivity and profits.
