Myron E. (Mike) Ullman, III, NRF Chairman and Chairman, President and CEO, J.C. Penney Company, Inc. and Tracy Mullin, President and CEO, National Retail Federation were joined by other retail executives on the podium. All participants were invited to take a tour of the trading floor and attend a presentation in the boardroom on 1010data's long-time work for the Exchange.
The event was scheduled to coincide with the NRF's annual convention and EXPO in New York City.
"Although we have been involved in many sectors, our primary focus to date has been in financial services, " said Joel Kaplan, President and CEO of 1010data, "Now that we are launching an intensive effort in the retail and consumer packaged goods space, what better way to symbolize the effort than to highlight it at the NYSE. We are essentially introducing our new customers to our old and saying that they will find our services to be equally compelling."
