Directions Magazine and MundoGEO, the largest media and communications company in geospatial technology in Latin America, announce the second annual Location Intelligence Brazil Conference. LI Brazil will be held concurrently with the MundoGEO#Connect Latin America Conference in Sao Paulo on May 8.

LI Brazil will focus on the applications of geospatial technology for the business community of Brazil, one of the fastest growing markets for location-based information. Sessions will feature speakers from a variety of Brazilian geospatial technology companies and include topics on business intelligence solutions, analytics and predictive modeling, cloud computing, and location-based services.

“We’re excited to launch our second LI Brazil event in collaboration with MundoGEO and we expect to expand last year’s event to further explore more applications of location technology in enterprise computing and business intelligence,” said Joe Francica, editor in chief of Directions Magazine.
