DVS has been consistently participating in various Industry events. To carry on the momentum, DVS participated in the recently concluded annual event Indian Retail Forum 2009 organized by Images Retail (Sept 16th-17th, 2009) in Mumbai.

With both operational and aesthetic aspects of retail evolving into a science in more ways than one, technology is necessarily playing out a dominant role in managing the complexities of modern day commerce. Technology subsumes every aspect of operational verticals – sourcing, warehousing, retail store management – and makes a telling difference on profit margins. We showcased some of our most popular products/solutions that are changing the face and back-end of retail technology in line with consumer expectations and optimizing fast-paced shopping paradigms.
 
Commenting on the event, Ms. Reshma Nagpal, Associate Director - International Marketing, Dynamic Verticals Solutions said, “This year IRF was a fantastic platform through which DVS met a number of like-minded visionaries who shared our ethos of quality driven collaboration. Our suite of solutions on Microsoft Dynamic platform generated much interest from delegates." We look forward to adding value to these businesses through our domain expertise and internationally renowned best practices." she added.

Talking about the growth rate of the Indian retail B.S Nagesh says, "Aptly themed ‘Retail for India Tomorrow’, IRF intends to prepare us for a better tomorrow. There is opportunity, there is growth. And it is good to see that retail professionals are now realising that competitive harmony and trust is the key to growth."
