The Sao Paulo Symposium will be held at the Caesar Park São Paulo Faria Lima.

The two-day Sao Paulo Symposium will feature informative technical tracks, customer case studies, and opportunities to exchange ideas with peers and MicroStrategy experts.

MicroStrategy Symposium attendees can choose from a wide range of technical sessions, led by MicroStrategy product managers and engineers, with practical information on BI application usage and performance. During the Symposium, participants can schedule a one-hour consultation, at no charge, with a member of the MicroStrategy Technical Advisory Services Team to discuss their most challenging BI questions.

“MicroStrategy Symposia continue to provide excellent venues for attendees to interact with MicroStrategy experts, hear what industry-leading companies have learned from their BI deployments, and network with peers,” said Sanju Bansal, MicroStrategy COO. “These events have been highly successful in the U.S. and Europe, and we are pleased to expand the schedule to offer our first Symposium in Latin America.”
