Please join us for a fascinating evening where we will hear from innovative swiss technologists who are solving real world problems. Our Stammtsich presenter, Peter Theony, is the author of the open source collaboration software TWiki. He will discuss how TWiki empowers sharing, collaboration, productivity and organization among users. It is also an efficient platform for the development of web-based applications.
The Stammtsich presentation will be followed by Bruno Schurter and Marc Dangeard, who will launch the next Club Entreprenuer project. The project is from former Stammtisch presenter, Walter Baechtiger, who will work with CE to further point-x's branch management strategy tool. This tool powerfully harnesses technology to inform location assessment and to direct location optimization.
