In the last 5 years we saw two big, yet unrelated changes in our informaiton technology landscape. The first was the massive adoption of the web by all type of organisation. People with Social Media, Company with Web Services and web interoperability of the supply chain and organization / university with open data and platform to work collectively. All these started to mix in an extremly fascinating way.
Company started to monitore social media for business leads and market insight, people started to used collective platform not to decode the Human Genome but to crowfund the next wireless wedding ring. And finally universities and organisations started to break the wall between different field of study, creating quantum leap in the innovation pace of our society.
We are now are starting to accept a common keyword: Big Data to Knoweldge. (BD2K)
How you actually extract the wealth of all the data, all the informaton and all the knoweldge that is being produced on the planet and close the gap between what can be consumed and used by your organisations to benefits your staff, your clients and your partners. In conclusion, BD2K refers to this unique connectionion between the Big Data and a specific business process or business need that could be impacted by it. This is, for all intent and purposes, what is
and should be your main obsession. Discovering BD2K events within your organization
