Introduction

About This Event

The business world is changing dramatically — and faster than ever. That is why companies
must rely on data to make critical decisions, improve their operations, and transform cus-
tomer, partner, and employee experiences. However, the enormity, complexity, and regu-
latory requirements of data mean that data workers spend 67% of their time searching and
preparing data, rather than using it for insight.

In this chaos, companies need to turn data from potential liabilities to concrete opportuni-
ties. Data Intelligence Virtual Conference APAC 2020 will feature experienced Data Practi-
tioners who will shed light on how modern businesses are empowering more users to
become data driven. Join us at the upcoming “#DIV2020” to learn the strategies, tech-
niques, and tools to gain confidence in your data and in your decisions.
