What type of business are you in?
My day is filled with following key areas:
1) Microsoft ISVs and their strategy development
2) Microsoft BI solutions with rich user experiences in analytics such as social media metrics
3) Social media/engagement marketing research
What type of activities would benefit you as part of this network?
I have an interest for anything that has do to with the life of an ISV and specifically from a business model perspective. My doctoral dissertation from 2004 dealt with software product platforms (Evaluation of a Product Platform Strategy for Analytical Application Software) and it seems like market is getting more towards this as programming paradigms and software licensing models are changing.
