According to John Naisbitt, author of Megatrends: Ten New Directions Transforming Our Lives, “We have for the first time an economy based on a key resource (Information) that is not only renewable, but self-generating. Running out of it is not a problem, but drowning in it is.” Every business is looking to gain insights from their data as a source of competitive advantage, but turning Big Data into actionable insights requires a new approach – one that condenses data from multiple sources while reducing uncertainty through context. Join this session to learn how a cognitive system can address these challenges.

- That unlike programmable systems, cognitive systems mimic how human beings think
- How a cognitive system can provide unprecedented levels of insight into vast bodies of information
- How understanding Big Data requires a holistic approach which includes people and processes
