5th Annual Wolfram Data Summit 2014

Anthony Scriffignano, Dun & Bradstreet, SVP Worldwide Data & Insight

The "V's" of Big Data (volume, variety, veracity, value, etc.) are now well entrenched in our thinking as data scientists and information professionals. We have come to understand the techniques of discovery and curation, though we still struggle with the many underlying issues associated with overwhelming quantities of data. More and more, a new opportunity exists in the area of discovering and synthesizing insight from relationships among data. The ability to discern these relationships, both in terms of data in hand and discoverable data, is increasingly the capability that separates the urgent from the important in the decision matrix of leaders in information-centric roles. This session will discuss some of the critical evolutions in the discovery and curation of relationships involving business entities and people in the context of those entities on a global scale, including some interesting and humorous learnings as this capability is expanded across geographies and languages.
