Data science is a big buzzword right now. But beyond the hype, what does it really mean, and how does it relate to Canadian entrepreneurs and businesses?
As the modern digital economy continues to evolve, businesses that embrace and harness data science concepts and tools — including machine learning, artificial intelligence and big data analytics — will have a strong competitive advantage.
In this session, you will be introduced to the concepts of data science as they apply to modern business. Experts from Cybera, Alberta’s not-for-profit technology agency, will show you how data science and analytical thinking can be incorporated into business planning. You will leave with a better idea of how your company can approach “data science” in a practical, manageable way, using case studies and real-life examples.
