SAS Global Forum shows "Strength in Numbers"

By Chris Hemedinger on The SAS Dummy April 29, 2013 Topics | SAS Events

What a conference so far...

SAS Global Forum is now in full swing, and the two big sessions (Opening Session last night, and the Tech Session this morning) have been packed with impressive material. The attendees I've spoken with have been suitably impressed and enthused. You can view the sessions all on the Livestream channels.

I'll post more when I have a chance, but for now you can follow along on the SAS Users Groups blog, the Twitter stream, and on the Livestream.

Now it's almost time for me to hit the makeshift studio and broadcast the first of two SAS Tech Talks. Tune in if you can!

SAS is a company with customers worldwide. I know that the SAS Global Forum is important to SAS employees and users in the USA. Here in Germany it seems less so. Could the blogs (not only this one) be a little less dominated by this theme, please? Perhaps one of your blog writers would like to attend and write about something outside the USA, for example KSFE?

  Peter,
  
  Thanks for the comment. We do have several blogs that focus on different regions of the world. For example, we have a German-language blog here. You can find links to these blogs, and information about events of regional interest, by visiting the SAS site for your country. In Germany that's http://www.sas.de. You can find the complete directory by clicking "Worldwide Sites" at the top of the SAS home page.
