Conference at IMD for SME about Agility

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Agility : Key Factor for the future success of SME?

IMD Lausanne International Business School collaborated with Klewel in order to webcast this event organized with Crédit Suisse and Ernst & Young. In French.

Agilité : Facteur clé du succès des PME pour demain?

Le monde a changé au cours de ces 18 derniers mois. Nous ne sommes pas tous d’accord sur les raisons, ni sur les responsables ou encore sur le fait que ce soit une bonne ou une mauvaise chose. Par contre, nous constatons que les entreprises ayant eu du succès au cours de cette période et qui continuent à en avoir sont celles qui ont compris que l’agilité est un élément clé. Nous avons besoins d’organisations, de stratégies et de personnes qui fassent preuve d’agilité. Des entreprises dont les dirigeants et les collaborateurs réussissent en changeant les règles du jeu et en allant de l’avant.

Agenda :

14h00 – 14h10 :

Klewel continues its collaboration with Nestlé

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

On the 4th of May 2010, the 222 market managers of Nestlé met in Vevey for a market head conference. Klewel was asked to capture and put the content of the event on a USB stick for each of the market managers. 
 
 

On the 6th of May 2010, more than 2000 cadres of Nestlé gathered in Montreux Convention Center for the Executive and Management Staff Conference. Klewel was asked to capture and put the content of the event on Nestlé’s Intranet visible to all the 180′000 employees.
The content is strictly confidential and remains on Nestlé’s IT infrastructure.

Using Klewel, it allows Nestlé to archive all the content on their servers for on-demand video access. The staff that could not attend the conference is now able to retrieve the specific part of the conferences thanks to Klewel search engine coupled with its personnalized video player.
