Which Business Intelligence (BI) trends do you track, lead, or follow? Do you lecture or present Business Intelligence knowledge to your students to ensure that they are prepared to include this important topic as part of their careers?

Academic Research Center
Academic Research Centers (ARC) currently have 4 sites worldwide: ARC China (Shanghai), ARC Europe (Levallois), ARC India (Bangalore), and ARC North America (Vancouver).
These sites create research partnerships with academia to expand the universe of business intelligence (BI) research, knowledge, and innovation.
ARC complements the SAP BusinessObjects Innovation Centers by focusing on longer-term challenges, usually a 2 to 5 year term, and limiting its scope to proof-of-concept work.
