Abstract
We are living in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The term I use for this is the "Age of Data". Organizations are being forced to transform their operations to deal with this new reality. Data Management and Data Science have therefore taken center stage. Leaders must become data-savvy and data-driven and focus on Risk Management, use data to innovate, and make better decisions through Insights driven by Data Science. Data practitioners play a critical role in the transformation and change journey. In this presentation Jay will focus on the fundamental data management building blocks, the maturity journey and how Data Science and Data Management can be deployed effectively to drive value and mitigate risks.
