The document summarizes a presentation given by Stefano Scamuzzo of SpagoWorld by Engineering Group at an Open Innovation Awards event in Paris on September 22nd 2011. In the presentation, Stefano demonstrates SpagoBI, an open source business intelligence suite, to John, a sales manager, and Jack, an IT manager, who were skeptical of adopting a new BI system. Through an interactive demo in under 5 minutes, Stefano is able to convince John and Jack of the capabilities and benefits of SpagoBI, and they agree to build a prototype and present it to their boss the next day.

2. My name is Stefano but in the next 6 minutes
I will be:
John, Sales Manager at Foo.com

3. Jack, IT Manager at Foo.com

4. Hi Jack, I want to rapidly know how much we are selling
in Europe, which products are most sold, which
customers bought more than last year,
And and and ....

5. John, I told you so many times, we need a Business
Intelligence system ...
… but you are so in love with those Excel sheets you are
producing every day

6. Yes, you told me but I remember you that a BI system is
a costly, long and high demanding project …
… we are in economical crisis … did you ever hear about
it ?

7. Yes, I know, I'm reading newspapers … but now with
open source and agile BI things are no more as you still
are believing !
In less than 5 minutes I will show you what you can do
with SpagoBI, it's a BI suite, the only 100% open source
I found in my solution scouting ...

8. Hmm … it seems like you are trying to sell me an old car
as usual …
People, would you trust him ? Let's see … Jack, proceed,
I'm so curious

9. I could show you more things, as: making analysis on
geographical maps, building interactive dashboards,
displaying indicators and charts on mobile devices as
smartphones and tablets but ..
… I know my time is almost over and you have to go
playing tennis with your friends …
… but I have a last question for you: “What do you think
about ?”

10. Wow … looks like you convinced me to buy your old used car …
world is really changing ...
Ok, let's have a beer … and tomorrow morning start building a
prototpye with this SpagoBI … or whatever you called it !
Should we finally convince our boss too ?

11. Thank you
