The event kicked off with an opportunity for clients to meet directly with the Sapiens management team in an interactive format, followed by a reception, wine tasting and dinner. The second day began with a welcome from Ron Karam,president of Sapiens’ North American Retirement Services and Insurance division, followed by an overview of the company’s global vision and strategy from Roni Al-Dor, Sapiens’ president and CEO.
“The ALIS conference was an opportunity to see where Sapiens is headed with the ALIS product. It is gratifying to see that many of their initiatives align closely with my priorities. Sapiens’ efforts regarding self-sufficiency support, performance and documentation are all spot on,” said Stuart W. Smith, senior vice president, Information Systems, Columbian Financial Group.
“The 2014 Sapiens ALIS Conference in Boston provided a nice combination of allowing for client interaction and feedback, sharing the Sapiens vision and educating the attendees on the future of technology. I was impressed that Sapiens invited prospective clients, demonstrating their confidence that existing customers would share positive experiences. It’s nice to see that Sapiens has aspirational goals and clearly understands the importance of strong relationships with their customers,” said Lisa Young, vice president of Operations with Assurant Solutions – Preneed.
The program provided a range of topics and speakers to give the audience a variety of perspectives and insights into Sapiens’ people and products, as well as industry trends and hot topics. Agenda highlights included:

Roni Al-Dor, Sapiens’ president and CEO, enjoyed the exchange of ideas. “The conference provides Sapiens with an opportunity to listen to user feedback and input, so that we can continue to improve and provide high value to our clients.
