Hi everyone,
I wanted to make sure you know about the next Predictive Analytics World conference, Oct. 20-21 in Washington DC (www.pawcon.
------------
Predictive Analytics World is the business-focused event for predictive analytics professionals, managers and commercial practitioners, covering today's commercial deployment of predictive analytics, across industries and across software vendors. The conference delivers case studies, expertise and resources to achieve two objectives:
1) Bigger wins: Strengthen the business impact delivered by predictive analytics
2) Broader capabilities: Establish new opportunities with predictive analytics
PAW's October 2009 program is packed with the top predictive analytics experts, practitioners, authors and business thought leaders, including keynote speakers Stephen Baker (author of The Numerati and Senior writer at BusinessWeek)
Case Studies: How the Leading Enterprises Do It
Predictive Analytics World focuses on concrete examples of deployed predictive analytics. Hear from the horse's mouth precisely how Fortune 500 analytics competitors and other top practitioners deploy predictive modeling, and what kind of business impact it delivers.
And the leading enterprises have responded, signing up to tell their stories. PAW-09 will have 25 sessions across two tracks, so you can witness how predictive analytics is applied at Aflac, Amway, Citizens Bank, The Coca-Cola Company, Financial Times, Hewlett-Packard, Infinity Insurance, IRS, Lifeline Screening, National Center for Dropout Prevention, The National Rifle Association, The New York Times, Optus (Australian telecom), PREMIER Bankcard, Reed Elsevier, Sprint-Nextel, Sunrise Communications (Switzerland)

Cross-Industry Applications
Predictive Analytics World is the only conference of its kind, delivering vendor-neutral sessions across verticals such as banking, financial services, e-commerce, education, government, healthcare, high technology, insurance, non-profits, publishing, retail and telecommunications.
And PAW covers the gamut of commercial applications of predictive analytics, including response modeling, customer retention with churn modeling, product recommendations, fraud detection, online marketing optimization, behavior-based advertising, insurance pricing, sales forecasting, text mining and credit scoring.
Why bring together such a wide range of endeavors? No matter how you use predictive analytics, the story is the same: Predictively scoring customers optimizes business performance. Predictive analytics initiatives across industries leverage the same core predictive modeling technology, share similar project overhead and data requirements, and face common process challenges and analytical hurdles.
Rave Reviews
February's inaugural Predictive Analytics World was an acclaimed success, with over 200 attendees from 12 countries witnessing case studies from over 20 named companies that represent 11 industries.
