Big Data Summit - Connecting the Dots

Four out of five companies (80 percent) are increasingly making relevant decisions based on insights from data analysis.

A good two-thirds (69 percent) recognize, according to a recent study by Bitkom Research and KMPG, that data analytics is increasingly becoming a crucial building block for their value creation.

But how exactly can companies get the most business value from the investments they've made in Big Data technologies to date?

To achieve this, it is now necessary to dovetail their use closely with decision-making and business processes. Data science now faces a maturing process: from arts and crafts to industrialization.

50 x Big Data at the 5th Summit

Participants at the fifth Big Data Summit in Hanau can expect around 50 presentations. Topics include "Transformation to the digital enterprise", "Customer experience management", "Cognitive systems in practical use", "Connected Car - Big Data in the automotive industry", "Big Data impulses for Industry 4.0", "Solutions for a digitalized energy supply", "New Big Data technologies for new applications" and "Big Data deployment - technical possibilities and social acceptance".

In time for the Summit, Bitkom, together with the Smart Data Forum and Germany Trade & Invest, has presented the most comprehensive overview of the Big Data landscape in Germany to date.
