I am writing to invite you to participate at the FASTforward Summit, a search industry event designed for leading-edge enterprises. The Summit will be held at the Shangril-La Hotel Sydney, May 21st from 8:30AM-12:30PM.

Join us at the FASTforward Summit to take a deeper look at search and how your business is impacted by the User Revolution. We will be detailing how search-driven innovation is changing the way companies in your market monetise assets, create new business models, lock in customer loyalty, and develop intelligence from distributed enterprise information to enable key decision makers to take rapid and definitive action.


You’ll hear from industry experts with real-world examples of how search can help instill insight from overwhelming, multi-source silos of information, and have the opportunity to network with peers. This is also a chance to learn why Microsoft thinks search is so critical.
