Webinar: Becoming a Data Powered Organization – Perspectives for the Chief Data Officer

In the Extreme Data Economy, data plays a new role. Data is behind every decision, so the business must be able to field unpredictable data and perform complex analysis immediately. But conducting this type of analytics on today’s complicated data is easier said than done. In the Extreme Data Economy, to keep up, businesses need to fundamentally rethink the design choices they make to handle the increasing complexity of analysis and unpredictability of data. And in this journey towards becoming a data-powered organization, the Chief Data Officer is the strategic leader who needs to embrace new architectures, evangelize the use of data and invest in next generation analytics.

In this webinar, we discuss perspectives for the CDO to navigate this journey including:

• The evolution of the Extreme Data Economy
• Designing for the future: The technology and paradigms required to succeed
• Case studies exploring the new needs of data-powered organizations
