Details
The start-up industry is suffering from a fundamental problem: an extremely high failure rate. Despite the massive amount of data available, we are still unable to resolve this mystery.
And nowadays, with Big Data entering the trough of disillusionment, what does all this mean for the overall market in terms of innovation and start-up? Could we ever use Big Data to resolve the start-up mystery?
By tapping to the latest trends in big data, analytics, artificial intelligence and IoT, Trevor Cox will help us understand what is happening in the market today, why big data is struggling today and how we can fix it.
