THEMES:

Day 2 – Creative Ways to Tackle Business Problems with Geospatial Data and Technology.
BeCreative on May 2 & 3 is to explore how creative becomes everything.
Geospatial plays a pivotal role in providing the fundamental framework for governance, services, infrastructure and asset management and, most importantly today, disaster and recovery management. There is immense potential to leverage communication and other technology platforms for business growth.
The BeSpatial 2023 virtual conference provided an opportunity for geospatial professionals to showcase their achievements, best practices and challenges preparing for and adapting to the predicted and unpredicted changes in future.
Your participation as a speaker is meaningful because it will help identify the current state of adoption and integration of data and technology in geospatial implementations, specifically, the transformational power of connecting data repositories in the collaborative and interorganizational work environment.
BeSpatial 2023 is a full virtual event being offered May 2 & 3 over two 7 hour days. One event registration included full access to each day's program streams that focused on technical, business, management/executive presentations. Plus, there's was our popular Industry partners EXPO with industry partner presentations.
The afternoons offer a choice to attend a single topic sessions that may be in the format of a workshop, townhall, panel and/or seminar session.
Why attend?
