On October 30, Golden hosted a Halloween-themed "Discover Interactive Dashboards" seminar...and our BI team dressed the part! Channeling cyclist Lance Armstrong, Golden's VP Erik Golden kicked off the presenation from atop his bike, and Indiana Jones (also known as Alan Sawyer) showed up to demo Business Objects dashboards.
