SOCIALISE AND WIN!

A Social Business creates conversations, often in real time, to make business a more vibrant, engaging, open and responsive experience. It brings together people with different expertise, delivering right and relevant information to the right people at the right time. And that's exactly what businesses need in today’s fast-changing, customer centric, interconnected world. Inspired by the idea of being Social, we’re organising the 'Social Genius Quiz' - a series of fun questions that will be thrown your way, only at the Collaboration Track of Software Universe 2011 on the 20th of October.
