The document provides information about the speaker and their company Pretius. It discusses two typical APEX application examples - a sales commission application that was developed to migrate an Excel-based process to APEX, and a KPI dashboard application that centralized reporting from various data sources into a single APEX application. It then goes into further details about each application, highlighting features such as configurable rules, integration with different data sources, and interactive reports.
