Palo Alto, CA, December 21, 2015 - TIBCO Software Inc., a global leader in integration, analytics, and event processing, has received a 2015 Dresner Advisory Services Technology Innovation Award as a leader in Location Intelligence.

The Dresner Advisory Services Technology Innovation Awards identify leaders drawn from several 2015 Wisdom of Crowds® thematic market studies. The awards are based on end-user data collected on usage and deployment trends, products, and vendors, and provide a real-world view into the business intelligence (BI) and analytics industries.
