Yella! The Third Annual Laserfiche International Conference returns to Lebanon with purpose and vision

150 attendees from Europe, Africa, Asia and the Pacific Region experienced hands-on labs and product overviews covering every aspect of the Laserfiche product suite

November 17th, 2009

“Yella” is Arabic for “Come on, let’s go!”—and that’s exactly the attitude last month’s Third Annual Laserfiche International Conference inspired in the 150 attendees from Europe, Africa, Asia and the Pacific Region who were eager to learn how they could maximize the value of Laserfiche to their organizations.

The Laserfiche International Conference returned for the second year in a row to Beirut, Lebanon, co-hosted by Laserfiche and Middle East and North Africa Laserfiche distributor BMB sal. It offered four tracks personalized to the needs of users, administrators, developers and resellers with hands-on labs and product overviews covering every aspect of Rio enterprise content management and Avante business process management. “Last year, we had just two tracks, so doubling the tracks this year made a huge difference. All the attendees were impressed,” says BMB Sales Manager Roula Chehab. “There was a chance to learn more as they got divided into smaller groups. Attendees also liked how diverse the demonstrations and topics covered in the labs and lectures were.”
