TORONTO - Sept. 25, 2013 - PRLog -- Retail software developer MI9 will host its annual Product Steering Committee meeting at the Marriott Downtown Hotel in New York City October 1 & 2, 2013. This steering committee is composed of client executives from leading apparel, hardware, and specialty retail organizations. The group is instrumental in determining the product development goals of the MI9 Retail organization.

“Although we continually track industry-wide trends to plan our future development, this annual meeting further grounds us. The Committee discusses key topic areas in light of the challenges clients are facing and their vision for the future. It provides us with greater insight than any survey could,” said MI9 CEO Mike Burge.  “MI9 consistently re-invests a large percentage of its annual revenue in product development to enhance its product suite. This meeting ensures that investment is used wisely. The Committee members, who represent a variety of retail verticals, speak candidly about their observations and experiences; we consolidate their views and evaluate how they fit into our development process.”

The major thrust of the 2012 meeting was store operations and the connected customer, which led to the development of enhancements to MI9 Store, both point of sale and back office management system. This year’s meeting will focus on omnichannel retailing and its impact on customers, trading partners, infrastructure and real time data access.
