SAN FRANCISCO, CA – November 13, 2012 – London’s world-famous Science Museum has been selected as the site of the OneVue 2012 conference, a first-of-its-kind gathering of business leaders designed to foster conversation around improving enterprise financial performance. The event, to be held November 14, 2012, is hosted by Anaplan, the leader in cloud performance management software, and Vue Analytics, the exclusive reseller of Anaplan software in the United Kingdom.

Anaplan, whose software is dramatically changing the way businesses plan for and adjust to new realities in their companies and markets, will be joined at the event by dozens of customers, including customer speakers Worldwide Clinical Trials, Taylor Wimpey, Pandora, and Central European Media Enterprises (CME). Executives from each company will talk about how Anaplan is helping them create powerful business models, measure and analyze operations, and collaborate and act in real time.
