Winter Conference on Business Intelligence (http://gkmc.utah.edu/winter/) provides a unique forum for exchanging creative research ideas/findings/perspectives as well as building strong synergy among leading information systems researchers and business executives. The theme of the conference is “Data-Driven Business Optimization.” Through papers, panels, and discussions we will highlight the data-centric challenges and opportunities for creating business intelligence strategies and impacts in modern organizations. The conference will provide abundant opportunities for feedback and dialogue among participants --- either at the conference venue or while racing down the slopes of scenic Wasatch mountains.
