"After sponsoring just two
events, we decided to partner with Frost & Sullivan for a 12-month Integrated
Marketing Campaign. We not only experienced first-hand the high level of
business executives in attendance seeking strategies to grow their
businesses. We were also impressed with the level of customer service
provided by the Frost & Sullivan team. As our partner, Frost & Sullivan is
now an extension of our marketing team and we look forward to a long-term
relationship as partners."
- Geoff Waite, Vice President - Sagentia Inc.
"I have a multi-perspective view of Frost & Sullivan. Just a
couple years ago, I was a Vice President within Frost & Sullivan and attended
the Executive MindXchanges as a Frost & Sullivan staff member. Having that
experience and exposure, I was well aware of the high level audience in
attendance and the quality content produced by the Events Division. Now that
I’m directing HCL Technologies Americas business, it was an easy decision to
sign on as a MindXchange sponsor. This past March we re-signed for our second
MindXchange sponsorship and are now in discussions for an Integrated Marketing
Campaign to include Research, White Papers, eBroadcasts, and more events. If
you only knew what I know, you’d understand why Frost & Sullivan’s Events
division is a great team to partner with."
- Manoj Kenkare, Director of Life Sciences - HCL America
"We’re a boutique competitive intelligence services firm
that has sponsored over 10 Frost & Sullivan Executive MindXchanges during the
past five years. . . and for good reasons:
- Frost & Sullivan consistently delivers quality programs using a
highly interactive format that removes the barriers between sponsors and
attendees.In fact, Attendees want to hear the service providers’
perspectives.
- The audience quality is exceptional; both from the level of audience
perspective and the vendor:end-user ratio.
- We consistently develop relationships and ROI
Year-after-year, signing on for Frost & Sullivan events is the easiest
decision I have to make"
- Erik Glitman, Managing Director, Research and
Operations - Fletcher/CSI
"Product Development Consulting (PDC) has been sponsoring Frost &
Sullivan’s Executive MindXchanges for the past three years and recently joined
their Membership program. The interactive MindXchange format is ideal for a
boutique consulting firm like PDC. Frost & Sullivan delivers top quality
attendees (prospects) with sponsors positioned as peers (no “us-them” barriers
between Attendees and Sponsors) in an intimate, engaging, open-fourm
networking atmosphere jam-packed with touchpoints to help foster and build
solid relationships. No other event positions us better to showcase our
Intellectual Capital and we look forward to participating in Frost &
Sullivan’s 2009 events and beyond."
- Sheila Mello, Managing Partner and Principal Consultant -
Product Development Consulting
"Frost & Sullivan events are very different and much more valuable than
the typical conferences we attend. They are incredibly effective venues

environment and on enabling real dialog about critical issues facing business
today. We're enthusiastically looking forward to working with F&S in the
future."
- Dan Chow, Senior Vice President, George Group Consulting, L.P.
"Frost & Sullivan's approach to the Executive Summit is unique. It is a
highly interactive forum that provides the ability to focus on industry
issues, both for sellers and buyers, and as such, should be one of the key
tools in any company's marketing tool kit. Even better, the real R.O.I. is
exceptional."
