Growing up, I used to watch the animated version of Superman on TV in black-and-white and I can still remember that introduction of :
“Faster than a speeding bullet.
More powerful than a locomotive.
Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.
It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No, it’s Superman!”
I always felt that this narrative greatly understated what Superman could do. Of course he was faster than a speeding bullet since he could fly into outer space in just seconds; he was more powerful than a dozen locomotives and, since he could fly, bounding over a tall building was nothing! The fact was that Superman had amazing super powers and could do almost anything we could imagine. Since our imaginations have no boundaries, the capabilities of Superman seemed limitless.
Yet Superman had a day job as mild-mannered Clark Kent, the shy, fumbling and often inept newspaper reporter. Clark was portrayed as a real nerd and it was that characterization which gave hope to all of us other inconspicuous geeks. Maybe, we had hidden super powers too!
Business Intelligence today is taking on super power status as it provides the capability to analyze data and predicts trends that can transform organizations and actually change the world. The possibilities are only limited by our imagination – this is Limitless BITM.
Many of the people creating BI solutions are a lot closer to resembling a Clark Kent than a Superman but, often, those super powers are just waiting to be unleashed.
The theme of this year’s InfoSol Business Intelligence Seminar (IBIS 2013) is Limitless Business IntelligenceTM and one of its objectives is to provide a collaborative environment where the “Clark Kents” of BI can gather and hone their super powers to conceive and share incredible BI solutions.
The hands-on advanced immersion boot camps and executive seminars at IBIS are designed to inspire you to see a world of infinite possibilities and Limitless Business IntelligenceTM solutions.
It’s time to bring out the super hero in you. It’s time to “up, up and away!”

At IBIS 2013, along with LimitlessBI, InfoSol is hosing the First Annual InfoBurst Conference. The three-day event, focused on all things InfoBurst, is a unique opportunity to learn new InfoBurst skills, exchange knowledge and ideas with peers and experts and influence the future direction of the solution.
