Innovations 2009

As you all know, we are in the midst of an upheaval in the global financial services market. The changing conditions will inevitably result in budget constraints for many of you, and we anticipate that external spend and industry conference attendance will be adversely affected.

As a result, we have decided to change our approach to this year's Innovations Conference (to have been held in Orlando, April 2009). We want to retain much of what makes Innovations a success – interaction with CGI members, networking with your peers, and offering updates, as well as insights to the market and solutions designed to help you, our clients, through these tough times. But in order to lower out-of-pocket expenses for you, we're looking at several options that will reduce your travel and time out of office, including regional seminars, webinars and other virtual models.

Stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks on format, timing and agenda of what will be our Innovations 2009 World Tour! If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at Innovations@cgi.com
