Paul Johns, Chief Marketing Officer said, “"It was evident at the summit that cost conscious compliance professionals are selecting information technology and solutions that deliver real ROI without compromising regulatory obligations. Compliance solutions discussed on the day included the critical importance of linking internal policies to external regulatory changes with such solutions as Complinet’s Policy Manager; as well as how auditable online training has become essential to ensuring employees fully understand how they need to appropriately conduct themselves."
Feedback from one summit attendee included: "The Complinet Customer Summit was not only informative, but it also served as a catalyst for the development and enhancement of our internal compliance department. I left with a light bulb hovering above my head."
