The showcasing of the new releases of @RISK and DecisionTools Suite 5.5 were among the highlights of Palisade's Summer Risk Congress, an event recently held at the Hotel Excelsior, Munich, and attended by 45 practitioners of optimisation, risk and decision analysis. Demonstrating the versatility of Palisade solutions, insurance, oil and gas, finance, healthcare and defence were just some of the different industries represented by attendees from all over Europe. A selection of presentations were enjoyed by delegates to the event, ranging from schedule risk analysis, and operational hedging in supply chain networks through to the business case adjustment of an 18 billion Euro new power plant using @RISK. The day was then concluded by Palisade's Director of Training and Consulting, Dr. Michael Rees who presented a popular keynote session on "The Best Practices and Principles for Modelling in Excel and @RISK".
Excellent! The conference has been the opportunity to meet other users and build a ‘user network.’
Alain Koutouan, AXA RE
Presentations on the improvements to speed and functionality in @RISK version 5.5 and DecisionTools Suite 5.5 were especially well received, with Alain Koutouan from IRCEM enthusing that "the new version of @RISK and the other components of the DecisionTools Suite make my dreams come true!"
Craig Ferri, Managing Director of Palisade Europe said afterwards that he felt that "Munich was a great success, the delegates seemed to really enjoy the presentations and training which were on offer" before continuing that "it's always a pleasure to meet with our end-users and hear the enthusiasm and passion they have for our software and its applications."
