« Big Data, Big Business »
Data industry is the future. As Google CEO put it: “Every two days now we create as much information as we did from the dawn of civilization up until 2003”. But who owns this data? Can we integrate, share, combine data from several sources? How can we turn Big Data into Business Value? An economy that will preserve individual rights is to be built. This Workshop tackles those issues from a technical, economical, legal and ethical perspective. As a moderator of this Workshop, Adrien Basdevant is honored to welcome a panel of experts:
