LUCCA, Italy, September 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

A 3-day annual event focused on helping the Office of Finance achieve more, faster, anywhere within their Performance Management
and Business Intelligence processes

Tagetik, a global provider of enterprise software solutions for Performance Management, Disclosure Management, Financial Governance and Business Intelligence, today opened 'Tagetik in Touch - Achieve More, Faster, Anywhere', its seventh global conference for finance and business users of Tagetik, at the historic Real Collegio in Lucca, Italy (Web: http://www.tagetik.com/intouch2013 - Twitter: #tagetikintouch).  

The company welcomed nearly 600 worldwide customers, analysts, partners and finance professionals to share ideas, learn from subject matter experts, network with peers and industry analysts, and discover new ways to address common Performance Management (PM) and Business Intelligence (BI) challenges.

"Finance is consistently being asked to achieve more, do it faster, and from anywhere," explains Manuel Vellutini  - EVP, Chief Operating Officer at Tagetik. "At this year's conference, we are previewing 'Tagetik 5' which is focused on empowering our customers to address more finance processes; enable them to complete these processes faster; and manage these processes from their mobile devices."

"The innovations in 'Tagetik 5' combined with the technology advances of our key technology partners Microsoft and SAP help the finance department achieve more, do it faster and with less effort, from wherever they are: in the office, on the road, or in their living rooms," adds Marco Pierallini  - EVP, Chief Development Officer at Tagetik. "'Tagetik 5' is designed to support the way finance organizations work, not dictate the way they work."  

Over two eventful days, participants from around the globe can choose from a collection of informative sessions including product demonstrations, case studies, customer experience and best practices in sessions across four tracks:

• Budgeting Planning & Forecasting
• From Close to Disclosure (consolidation, reporting and disclosure management)
• Financial Services Industry
• Sponsor Track - Experience from the Field

The format and content of the event is designed to address many of the challenges that are top-of-mind for CFOs, CIOs and finance professionals today as well as Tagetik partner sponsors including Accenture, Addedo, BearingPoint, Excent, Information Builders, KPMG, Microsoft, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Protiviti, SAP, Satriun, and others. Tagetik customers will share their experiences and best practices in informative case studies hosted by Randstad Holding, Erste Group Bank, Rabobank, Talanx, and many more.

For 2013, users can also participate in an optional deep-dive educational program ('TagED') that lets them take part in more in-depth hands-on seminars, product sessions, tips & tricks workshops, demo presentations and meet with Tagetik product experts to learn the latest and greatest about new enhancements and best practices.

"We are continuing our laser focus and efforts on meeting the needs of Finance.  I believe there is no better feeling than setting a common goal with our customers, sharing in a strategy and succeeding together as a team," says Pierluigi Pierallini  - President and CEO at Tagetik. "This conference is specifically designed to celebrate the accomplishments we have reached together and create an opportunity for our network of customers and partners to collaborate with us to achieve even greater goals together in the future."

Prior to the conference, Tagetik partners and system integrators worldwide attended an exclusive half-day Partner Summit bringing together the best consulting, software and technology professionals in the Performance Management industry to share their experiences and continue to strengthen the Tagetik partner network.
