Testimonials

Without attending the FST Summit I would not have been able to reach out to the delegates who attended the conference. We are looking forward to future summits. This is potentially the most cost effective marketing dollars that we have ever spend

Jay Bauer – STI Systems

Hats off to all of you who worked so hard on creating a wonderful experience! I have attended many conferences, and this was truly unique. I am quite thankful to have received an invitation and I look forward to future events

Roger Vann – First Bank of Delaware

Very good. Great learning experience to see what technologies are out there. Liked the no pressure approach. The quality of the delegates was also very impressive and provided the opportunity to see what your peers are doing

Arvind Kapoor – Chubb

Always an excellent event

Joe Kennedy – State Street

It was a good event. Excellent balance of workshops, vendor meetings and networking opportunities

Vinod Kachroo – Metlife

I learn a lot when I come to these sessions from the discussions on technology. It is cutting edge and substantive

Gautam Bose – Fidelity Investments

Great experience and genuinely enjoyed the company, FST personnel and venue. Would love to attend again

Greg Mershad – Redemtech

Great networking event that has given new aspects of current problems and created valuable networking peer contact opportunities. Highly recommended!

Mats Andersson – NASDAQ OMX

What stands out from this event was the quality of the speakers chosen to moderate the round tables. I like working with genuine facilitators who can open people up and keep the discussion moving.

Paul Bergamo – Liberty Mutual

What surprised me was the value that I got from the one on one meetings with vendors. I came to network with my peers but a few new relationships were surprising. I can be pretty tough to reach at the office and that can sometimes work against me…

Gerard Muldoon – Credit Suisse First Boston

I didn’t always agree with my peers but we had an interesting time looking at some of the pressures of compliance.

Edward Jones – Deutsche Bank

I have done business two years in a row at the GDS Summit…it works well.

Mark Udin – Commercial Bancshares Inc.

It is one of the best formats that we are working with right now. We have sponsored two GDS summits and are looking forward to our third. The team have looked after us well and introduced us to customers we would not have otherwise met.

Andrew Wilson – Accenture

I found meetings arranged are very good, talking to a lot of potential clients in one single venue is a great opportunity.

Wassin Hassanieh – SAP

The Summit was well organized and provided an excellent return on investment. We had high level meetings with senior IT executives in our targeted vertical who grasped our solution concepts and were able to see how they would apply through their organizations. The forum provided a relaxed, intimate environment for in-depth, meaningful discussions. We expect to close new business initiated at this event!
