The data imperative (sponsored by Zaloni)
Once, a company could live 60-70 years on the S&P 500. Now it averages 15 years. If companies were people, this would be an epidemic on par with the Black Plague. But the same things that dragged humanity out of that dark age can drag companies out of this one.

Once, a company could live 60-70 years on the S&P 500. Now it averages 15 years. If companies were people, this would be an epidemic on par with the Black Plague. But the same things that dragged humanity out of that dark age can drag companies out of this one. Zaloni CEO Ben Sharma has seen this firsthand in conversations with dozens of the world’s largest organizations. In this wide-ranging look at the state of data science, Ben shares how the best organizations immunize themselves against the plague of static data and rigid process. Using a historical perspective and concrete examples, he shows how augmenting human cognition is key not only to surviving, but thriving, in uncertain business climates and unprecedented market volatility. This keynote is sponsored by Zaloni.
