Benelux Customer Day

By Sabine Dekker, European Marketing Manager

On October 9th, 2003 Glovia International hosted its annual Benelux Customer Day in the castle of Heeze in the Netherlands. Approximately 60 percent of the Glovia customers from Belgium and the Netherlands gathered together in this historical setting to learn more about Glovia's current and future product development vision as well as the new features and capabilities of glovia.com.

The special topic for the day was 'Optimization.' In the morning guest speaker Jacques Adriaansen, Business Consultant and CEO of Javelin BVBA, presented a very entertaining and informative view of optimization and the ways companies can improve their business processes. Roland de Wolf, Supply Chain Manager of Euromold, explained how his company worked with Glovia to improve their business processes so they could better respond to changes in their market.

After lunch, the Customer Day continued with two tracks of educational sessions. The first track dealt primarily with business issues and included information on glovia.com products, such as ActionDesk and Order Management. The second track dealt with technical issues and covered Security Manager, Batch Processing, and Oracle Database Support.

Throughout the day and after each presentation there was time reserved for informal discussions. These discussions were highly appreciated by the attendees as they found it very useful to exchange ideas and network with other glovia.com users. We received great feedback from the attendees, all of whom concluded it was a successful and informative day.
