Greetings Professional,

It gives me great pleasure on behalf of Gartner, to personally invite you to our first Banking & Financial Services Industry (“BFSI”) Summit. Based on excellent feedback from our India IT Summit, which is run every July, Gartner has decided to set up a series of highly focused industry summits where our analysts and consultants can elaborate in more detail on issues and solutions affecting the banking and financial services industry.

We have assembled a highly experienced team of analysts and consultants from our global industry team to interact with you on key technology and business issues that we are exposed to daily through our IT and Business research programs and consulting assignments. We will draw upon our global, regional and local expertise and experience to provide you with a totally objective and independent view of the technologies and business issues that are going to fundamentally change the business environment that we work in and hopefully provide you with some guidelines for competitive success in the future.

To complement the resources of Gartner, we have also invited special guests to actively participate in our program, representing the Government, the Public Sector, the Regulators, the Private Sector, Technology Firms, and Consultants, in order to discuss the issues from a local, but increasingly global perspective, with our analysts.

In closing, I very much look forward to seeing you at our BFSI Summit.

Yours truly,


JOHN WESTE
