SAP Big Data Inspiration Day
“Sirous’ ability to create new perspectives based on his experiences with different cultures is second to none.”
Mark Raben, CTO SAP
During the event I had the pleasure of presenting a keynote on the influence of Culture on how we interpret Big Data. In my talk I discussed a number of cases of global and local brands such as Facebook, Alibaba and Coca-Cola.
By gaining in-depth knowledge of local cultures brands have the opportunity to make effective use of Big Data in order to increase customer confidence, gain competitive advantage and ultimately learn to ask the right questions instead of trying to provide the answers to questions that are not there.
Companies should focus on generating questions first, answers will follow.
Big Data needs context to become actionable.
Culure is a dimension often ignored when it comes to online data.
Interpretation = Information + Context
