Gartner’s Business Intelligence Summit 2011 kicked off on Monday in Los Angeles. It is the sister conference to one held in the beginning of the year in London. While the keynote speakers and participating companies vary, the general themes running through both conferences are the same. One is that with every passing year, business intelligence technology and applications get ever more consumerized for the business-end user. “The drive towards BI has become much less IT-driven. That is a trend that is not changing,” said Jeff Boehm, vice president of global product marketing for QlikTech. “It is similar to what we saw with CRM.”
