MILAN, Oct. 14, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- ANALYTICS
EXPERIENCE -- There is a lot of hype and jargon surrounding
analytics and artificial intelligence (AI). Yet put simply data
holds the key: when used properly, your data can set your
organisation up for success for years to come. So why not find out
how to make analytics a reality delivering tangible results at
Analytics Experience 2019 in Milan
on Oct. 21-23?
Join us at the event that gathers more than 1,500 data
scientists and business leaders who are passionate about analytics.
The theme of this year's conference is "Together we make analytics
real" with a focus on how organizations get value from analytics in
day-to-day operations.
"There is a lot of talk about AI and what this technology can
do," said Randy Guard, Executive
Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at SAS. "But the reality
is that technology alone won't make a difference unless it's
properly deployed to help organizations benefit from
analytically-driven decisions every single day. That's why we want
to share real-life examples from our customers, about how analytics
and AI can detect credit-card fraud, manage banking risk, drive
personalized customer relationships, identify promising drug
therapies and a lot more besides."
Participants can also look forward to keynotes from:
- Daniel Newman, Principal
analyst of Futurum Research and CEO of Broadsuite Media group, who
works with the world's largest technology brands exploring digital
transformation and how it is influencing the enterprise.

looks at how humans make (or are made to make) decisions with a
view to helping us making better decisions and avoid mental
traps.
- Dr. Youssef Al Hammadi,
Chief Intelligence Officer of the Special Olympics World Games Abu
Dhabi 2019, who is also an Advisor within the Office of Strategic
Affairs at the Abu Dhabi Executive office, looking at how advanced
analytics is applied across various industry sectors.
- Matt Ledding, a Juggling
Management Artist, looks at using juggling to hack the learning
process, and challenges people to rewire their minds and overcome
false assumptions that they never suspected they had.

Artificial Intelligence of the European Commission, who is
