Description:
We have a limited budget - how do I decide how much to spend on technology
investments, improvements to our properties, and other capital projects? Learn how to use return-on-investment
analysis models to answer these questions, and more, at this information-packed seminar. The only workshop of
its kind in the field, this intense seminar gives you not only a strategic framework for technology acquisition, but
also hands-on analytical tools. This is a "crash course" in traditional return on investment (ROI) methodologies,
net present value, intangible value, and payback periods, which can be immediately applied to either a
technology or capital acquisition.
