WaS Fazi,

This seminar is geared towards corporate industry, introducing the new features of Cognos 10. I will inform, as we plan such event for educational institutions. However, few faculty members from universities are also invited, to take the message across their university students.

Thank you IBM team, who had made this event a success. Specially Derek and Ksenija, for coming down to Pakistan and sharing their expertise with the community. And thanks to all the existing Cognos customers who attended the session and customers who have shown great interest in Cognos 10.
The response turned out to be surprisingly overwhelming. Those who missed due to closed registration, we'll do similar session again in 2011 and inform everyone. Feel free to email us, if you have any query: im.pa...@pk.ibm.com
I have also uploaded event photos on our Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_46448441956
