Imagine if every composer from Mozart to Gershwin used a different notation system. How would musicians be able to interpret the music quickly?

Yet in business, there is a plethora of ways to layout reports and dashboards, even within a single company. International Business Communication Standards (IBCS®) are leading the way to faster, better, and less-costly results in all stages of business communications and decision-making processes.

Dr. Jürgen Faisst, Managing Director of the IBCS® Institute, will present "What Data Analysts and Report Designers Can Learn From Musicians". Dr. Faisst will present the International Business Communication Standards (IBCS®), and how companies like Coca-Cola, Credit-Suisse and Philips have successfully standardized their financial reporting and analytics for faster, better, easier report design and creation, and greater comprehension by users all across their organization.

This will be followed by a presentation by Mr. Shaolin Tsui of 3AG Systems who will demonstrate IBCS® reporting standards in use across the Microsoft product stack. See how Microsoft technologies are ready to enable the adoption of IBCS® within your organization using certified add-ins for Excel, templates for Reporting Services and PowerBI, and a range of other Microsoft components.
