PROS Chief Visionary Officer Craig Zawada to Address Simon-Kucher & Partners Silicon Valley Pricing Forum
HOUSTON, May 2, 2016 – PROS® (NYSE: PRO), the revenue and profit realization company, today announced its Chief Visionary Officer Craig Zawada has been tapped to participate in a three-person panel discussion during Simon-Kucher & Partners (SKP) 17th Silicon Valley Pricing Forum. The one-day event, scheduled for May 12 at the Four Season Hotel in Palo Alto, Calif., will focus on monetizing innovations and implementing pricing changes.
The panel discussion – “How to Support the Implementation of Pricing Changes with Pricing and Licensing Software” – will be moderated by SKP Director Adam Echter. Zawada will offer insights on best practices for pricing software implementations and how to connect internal pricing teams to sales teams on the front line, enabling them to accelerate sales with winning pricing strategies.
Zawada, one of the pricing industry’s most renowned thought leaders, is co-author of The Price Advantage, which has been recognized as one of the most pragmatic books available today on pricing strategy. A frequently sought-after presenter, Zawada has spoken on pricing strategy at industry conferences in North America, Europe and South America.
“The pace of global competition is driving organizations to look for new opportunities to generate meaningful revenue growth, and expand and sustain profitability,” said Zawada. “Technologies are available today that apply science to internal and external data to uncover pricing insights that in the past were just too difficult to find. But companies cannot just point to these opportunities after the fact. Their quoting approaches need to bring this insight to bear in real time, before a sale is completed. I look forward to sharing insights about what we believe is the most important path to revenue and profit realization today.”
