FRIENDS OF PETS
March 21, 2018
Primetime for…Big Data 2018 conference is an expert platform for all, who are interested in using big data in smart business. Past editions had a great success in terms of participation – altogether there were more than 700 visitors, what demonstrates that the work with data is not a mere buzzword. Quite the reverse, the data represent a great, mostly not used potential of companies. Edition 2018 will focus on connection of 3 “intelligences” (business + human + artificial one).
Another of the series of expert meetings, dealing with selected aspects of the retail business – in the detail and with enough space for experience exchange. This time focusing on a category that generates not only interesting financial results but deals with what the Czechs really love - pets. Our ambition is to establish the traditional meeting of B2B community that is doing business in this category, their consumers and their owners.

EFFICIENT PROMOTIONS
PŘÁTELSKÉ MĚSTO 2O18
Another from the series of expert meetings, dealing with selected aspects of the retail business, this time focusing on a very hot topic. We are world champions in terms of the volume of sold discounted goods. Unfortunately, this has a fatal impact on profitability of both manufacturers and retailers. Will we find the way out of the spiral of discount promotions and start to do retail business more effectively?
Current dynamics of the Czech society and its national economy creates an enormous pressure to change the structure of cities and their daily life. City management and planning are often not available to reflect these radical changes in time. To react on this situation, we have established a platform, where all the interested parties may discuss new trends and local and international experience with city center transformation. Blue Events starts the new project called Friendly City 2018 which has an ambition to become an annual meeting completing this role.

October 25, 2018
Human Capital 2018 November 21, 2018
Another event from the series of professional conferences focused on the future of media, which by some “experts” have been supposed to be long dead, and which is in spite of that growing, evolving, undergoing successful digital transformation and maintaining a dominant role in the media mix of key advertisers. The future of the television will be discussed not only by representatives of TV groups, but also by media agencies and their clients. The keynote speaker will be the Director of Audiences from BBC.
When: October 25, 2018 Where: National Technical Library, Prague W: www.primetimefor.cz/en Number of Participants: 200+
People as the greatest wealth of a company. Today, people are often the only competitive advantage that companies have. People are the capital, not resources, as they are often called. Resources are being consumed, exhausted and when they are totally exploited, the search for a new deposit starts. Let´s perceive people as at the form of the capital that is more valuable estate than the material or the financial one. Social Capital can be cultivated and valuated, it is an input for the further development. People are the new “currency”.
