Big Data Business Intelligence Symposium

Tuesday, March 18, 2014 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
In modern businesses, increasing standards, automation and technologies have led to vast amounts of data becoming available. Business intelligence has now become the art of sifting through that data, extracting pertinent information and turning that information into knowledge upon which actions can be taken. This allows a business to predict what their own strengths and weaknesses are as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the competition giving a business the knowledge to have a competitive edge. Soon, business information will become more democratized where end users from throughout an organization will be able to view information on their particular segment to see how it’s performing. In the future, the capability requirements of business intelligence will increase in the same way that consumer expectations increase. It is therefore imperative that companies increase at the same pace or even faster to stay competitive.
The Data Mining Lab of University of Central Florida (UCF), SAS, and Everbank have come together to present this annual symposium on Big Data Business Intelligence. Here we bring together practioners from a variety of industries including health care and finance to share their experiences in applying emerging data mining techniques to solve challenging business problems.
