GIS: The Key to Strategic Business Decisions
Total Business Solutions Limited [TBSL], the local Esri distributor, and Esri, the leading Geographic Information System (GIS) software company, teamed up again to host the 2nd Annual Belize GIS Users Conference (BGUC) at the Best Western Belize Biltmore Plaza on Wednesday and Thursday, January 18-19, 2012. The conference provided a forum for almost 100 participants to expand their GIS knowledge and become a part of a global community that is using this powerful analysis and communication tool to make a difference.
With the conference theme “GIS: The Key to Strategic Business Decisions,” the BGUC gave businesses the opportunity to learn about the role of GIS in business and to see problems being solved utilizing Esri GIS technology. This event brought together sponsors, exhibitors, educators, government and commercial sectors to explore, discuss and collaborate on how GIS can help organizations with planning, analysis, decision making and managing activities. The agenda revolved around how successful GIS solutions are being implemented in every business sector of society and how it impacts our Belizean economy.
“Today GIS is making a difference in addressing social, environmental and economic issues. GIS is one of the most important aspects of national development and economic growth. Through GIS we can improve information exchange, make better business decisions and enhance management strategies, leading to growth and development for Belize,” says Loretta Palacio, Managing Director of TBSL. “The conference is a venue to share experiences and examine the role of geographic knowledge as a fundamental organizing framework for decision making. “
