Agenda Day 1

8:40 AM Digesting data into the machine of Man

With more data available now than in any time in human history, how do we cope with it, make sense of it and most importantly, action it. This presentation focuses on how this is managed from a technical, operational and human level to answer the following questions: 


Technical – how much data and what types of it can an organisation realistically manage computationally? 


Operational - how can an organisation prepare and maintain operational preparedness so that the back-office wheels keep turning 


Human – how much can the human brain take? How much data, insights and conclusions can we comprehend and action? 

Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining James.
