1. Strategy & Knowledge Information Days
10-11 October 2012, Kyiv - Ukraine
Understand, Compete and Grow in Global Markets
Baltica Western Europe India and China
(as of 1.10.2012)
Special invitation on behalf of Information Days Board
In today’s volatile and highly competitive business climate, it is crucial to achieve and maintain a
competitive edge to develop and improve your Strategy & Knowledge. With a slow recovery,
and a sluggish market in many industries, companies face lower margins and less capital
spending. Good competitive Intelligence (CI) is recognized across Europe as a key method of
helping companies make the very best strategic decisions, so that limited company resources
are put to best use to drive profit margins up.
2013 will be a lean year at best for many companies with many struggling to maintain margins
not just in Europe and the US, but globally. In essence Strategy & Knowledge will have to
find new ways to leverage existing resources and infrastructure at companies to better help
strategic and tactical decision-making. CI and the tools that lie behind good CI will ensure that
your organization is best equipped to make the right decisions in these difficult times.
With this in mind, we need to be open to learning new skills and networking, and sharing with
fellow Strategy & Knowledge professionals is a key way to achieve this. Strategy & Knowledge
Information Days offer a unique opportunity to meet with and learn from fellow practitioners and
world-class experts representing a wide range of industries and strategy disciplines.
Strategy & Knowledge Information Days coincide with The European SME Week and The
European Single Market Week which is taking place across Europe 15-21 October 2012.
We look forward to meeting you in Kyiv!
Wishing you success,
Kyryll Zhyvotovskyy
Deputy Director General, RAPPORT UKRAINE
National Adviser to OBI-Consulting (Vilnius, Lithuania) and SRP (London, UK)
