Participant Case Study: Blue Cross And Blue Shield Of North Carolina

Introduction

This case study of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina is based on a October 2014 survey of Frost & Sullivan Executive MindXchange customers by TechValidate, a 3rd-party research service.

“I was able to interact with other professionals that are facing or have faced the same challenges my organization faces. I was able to mine best practices and examine solutions that will assist. Excellent participants, presenters and sponsors.”

Challenges

  • Problems that plague today’s “traditional” trade show and conference include:
    • Presentations produce too few action items and takeaways – too theoretical
    • Aggressive sales tactics by sponsoring & exhibiting companies
    • Lack of community amongst event participants
    • The audience is too junior

Use Case

  • Rates the networking as outstanding at the Frost & Sullivan Executive MindXchange.
  • Recommends sending 2 team members to the Frost & Sullivan Executive MindXchange based on the amount of networking opportunities and range of content being delivered.
