Share your love of TM1 at the Octane Sydney TM1 user group. This is the premier annual event hosted and run by Octane, held at IBM's Sydney offices. This is not a product pitch. You will see what is new in TM1, understand your upgrade options, get a real look at the Planning Analytics roadmap and what is coming out of IBM’s development labs, and see the new PA Agent functionality in action.
Places are limited. Register to join the TM1 User Group Sydney and be part of the conversation around the next evolution of Planning Analytics.
Come and exchange TM1 tips and user cases with a group of like-minded finance people. Learn how TM1 is relevant in the world of artificial intelligence.
Whether you are a finance user, a TM1 developer, a stakeholder deciding on your organisation’s next move, or evaluating Planning Analytics for the first time, this event is built for you.
The only TM1 event worth going to, and it’s free.

Entry is free. However, places are limited, and we reserve the right to refuse.

This event is for finance people and TM1 enthusiasts at every level, including:
Everyone is welcome, whether you’ve run TM1 for years or you’re just getting curious about it. Nobody is turned away for being new to the platform or still finding their feet, that’s part of what makes this a genuine community event, not a curated sales audience.
“You will hear from other TM1 users about how they actually use the platform day to day. That is the part people usually tell us they got the most out of.”
