Innovation in the Age of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence

Improve your data services with innovation. Empower innovation with data and insights.

There are many ways to inspire ideation and spark innovation. Standard approaches include the presentation of innovation success stories along with important, big problems worth-solving. Another way could be to promote the next waves of technologies and try to spot opportunities to solve known problems with novel solutions. An alternative approach could be to look deeper into your data: enable and encourage your team members to monitor, identify and interpret non-obvious, unexpected data patterns that are worth exploring and understanding.

Having a rich data store and the analytical power to generate patterns, can prove to be a great source of inspiration: Large volumes of accumulated data contain untapped insights that, if discovered, can point to interesting innovation opportunities.

Data-driven innovation takes advantage of a streamlined, on-going data-mining service in search of deviations from normality and known baselines. In a product development context, such process could spot exceptions and rapid changes on how specific profiles of users leverage the features of the product; or a shift in the dynamics of how markets respond to a new feature, or even public statistics on the growth of a new, competitive service that could potentially evolve as a threat to the business.

Discover how:

  1. Embed innovation into your data engineering projects

  2. Spot and validate innovation opportunities for data products and services

  3. Inspire data engineers, data scientists and technical leaders to engage with the innovation process

  4. Use Data and analytical models to innovate and improve the corporate innovation process itself

  5. Define novel products and services powered by Artificial Intelligence

  6. Measure product and innovation performance

  7. Design next-generation Business Intelligence powered by Voice and AI

The Future of Business Intelligence is … Voice (and AI)

Imagine if you could simply ask your digital assistant any question about your business; and get concrete answers, not just data.

In the not-so-distant future, you will be able to engage in progressive business conversations with your ‘Decision Support Digital Agent.’ Business Intelligence systems of the future will provide answers, not just data. The complexity of analyzing data will be hidden and the experience will be driven primarily via voice. Insights and data stories will be incorporated in the right format, for the specific user and timing — to support or explain the business responses provided.

60 Leaders on Artificial Intelligence

Discover … unique insights and ‘practical wisdom’ on corporate, social, and other aspects of innovation

We envisioned … ‘60 Leaders on Innovation’ as a synthesis of expert views against a fixed set of ‘tough’ innovation questions, answered not by a single ‘innovation authority’, but by active leaders across disciplines, industries, and geographies. Interestingly, these perspectives are not always in perfect agreement or alignment - and this is the beauty of this initiative.

Learn how innovative companies operate and how to adopt effective innovation strategies. Understand how innovation and experimentation methods blend with agile product development. Get insights from the experts on the role of the C-Suite for innovation. Discover ways that Innovation can help humanity solve big problems like climate change.
