Data is being collected at unprecedented speed and scale, becoming an ever-increasing part of modern life. While ‘big data’ is big business, it is of little use without big insight. The skills required to develop such insight are in short supply, and the expertise needed to extract information and value from today’s data couldn’t be more in demand.
