Key to the success of this Summit is our Business Partner sponsors showing clients your solutions to help them solve their most critical business problems. We continue to adapt our Solution Centre offerings, based on your feedback, to make this event the perfect opportunity for you to showcase your products and solutions.

Our attendees value the interaction, strategy, and hands-on learning that our session tracks, Business Partners, and interaction with IBM subject matter experts bring. They choose to attend in order to find innovative ways to extend their investments in our products and solutions and to understand how the IBM ecosystem of products, Business Partner solutions, and peer-to-peer best practices can improve their business. It is this dynamic and personal interaction that makes the IBM Smarter Commerce Global Summit 2013 a must-attend event for our customers and prospects and we believe there is a distinct advantage for Business Partners who have a presence.

Grimaldi Forum

IBM Smarter Commerce Global Summit 2013 - Monaco will take place at the Grimaldi Forum, a world class 35,000m2 convention centre in one of Europe's most spectacular and unique countries.

A sovereign state, Monaco is located on the french riviera along the mediterranean only a 25 minute drive from the main airport in nearby Nice. The venue, the premium meeting location in the south of France and Monaco, is an exceptional location for this year's event, offering 3 auditoria, 22 breakout rooms and 35,000m2 of exhibition surface.

Located in the south western part of Europe on the Mediterranean sea and with significant historical heritage, a visit to the principality of Monaco is always an experience. Home of the rich and famous, Monaco offers astonishing architecture, an exceptional micro climate of coastline, and a number of high profile sporting events happening throughout the year including the Formula One Grand Prix and Tennis Masters.

It's also home to the monte carlo casino which has now been a filming location for three james bond films. Owing to its size, the Principality has had to be highly innovative in driving its economy. Besides industries like pharmacy, cosmetics and automotive engineering, there comes a range of expertise in finance, new technologies and international business.

In all, Monaco- and its Grimaldi Forum is the perfect meeting point for this year's Smarter Commerce Global Summit and we very much look forward to welcoming you there!
