On December 3rd and 4th 2008, PwC brought together a group of business, technology and industry analysts for a one and a half day session with senior partners from around the world. The meeting took place at the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam and kicked off on Wednesday evening with an informal cocktail party attended by over 50 analysts and senior PwC partners from across Europe and the rest of the world. This was the first such event organised in Europe by PwC, following a series of successful Analyst Days organised in the US over the last 5 years.
On Thursday, analysts were given a deep insight into PwC's consulting business worldwide and were given the opportunity for one-on-one meetings with a wide range of partners from across Europe, the US, Central and Eastern Europe, India and South Africa.
During the plenary sessions, the analysts heard directly from one of PwC's top worldwide clients, a leading worldwide player in the food and drink sector. The client's head of Group Control and Accounting and PwC's lead partners and directors gave an overview of a major ongoing engagement involving the resolution of a wide range of critical business issues and the implementation of new technology solutions.
Analysts were also given an insight into
PwC's Global Annual Review and our recently published
