REDWOOD SHORES, CA--(Marketwired - Nov 15, 2016) - Zyme, the market leader in the rapidly growing discipline of channel data management (CDM), today announced the expanded speaker lineup for its upcoming Global Channel Data Management Summit New York City, featuring executives from several Fortune 500 companies. The company's third CDM Summit scheduled for Dec. 1 will offer invaluable insights on channel strategy and solutions from Zyme customers, partners, analysts and industry thought leaders representing Accenture, CREE, General Electric, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, IBM, Steelwedge, Ventana Research and Xactly.
Attendees will learn how CDM can revolutionize their company's channel performance and deliver the maximum ROI from sales through channel partners. By leveraging the latest cloud-based CDM technology, businesses can establish a real-time flow of channel data that serves as a "single source of truth," surfacing new opportunities and uncovering a wide variety of risks and inefficiencies that result from poor channel visibility.
Global enterprises have increased their focus on CDM in recent years, as improved technology enables the collection of accurate data from the channel and companies demonstrate the value of channel visibility for critical business decisions across sales, marketing, supply chain management and a range of other processes. According to conservative estimates, poor channel visibility leads to losses in the form of misallocated incentive payments and inventory markdowns that cost technology and industrial companies $50 billion a year.
The all-day event hosted by Zyme will include thought leadership keynotes, breakout sessions and a customer panel discussion designed to educate attendees that are new to CDM as well as those with deep channel experience.
