OUR PANEL / AGENDA

Welcome note by Juan Tejeda, Managing Director BRAINS & HEARTS and Christiane Lesch, Managing Director apriori

Aymeric Gerardin,
Manager Big Data infrastructure, Amadeus Group
“Amadeus Big Data journey, lessons learned and observed value.”
1.3 Petabytes of data a day to manage is our day to day work! Why do we need so much data? The challenges we faced in our Big Data journey were not the ones expected. Company culture, process changes or organizational changes were by far our biggest show stoppers. What are our lessons learned? What solutions did we design to succeed and most of all do we have the value we had expected before we started?

Partner and Sommelier-in-Chief of BUYBOON
"Using Big Data to a retailer’s advantage.“

Dr. Ramin Assadollahi,
CEO and Founder, ExB Group
„How Big is needed? On the depth of understanding Data.“
The analysis of Big Data largely relies on the kind of known, structured information stored in databases. The technology developed by ExB works with unstructured data like written texts, converting it into a structured form that is suitable for big data analysis techniques. Focused on the application of Cognitive Computing and AI in the healthcare sector, ExB is developing new ways of “healing with software”.

Roeland Nieuwenhuis
Azure Data Solutions Architect Microsoft
"BIG DATA solutions at Microsoft."
Microsoft’s services alone generate petabytes of data a day that we need to process timely and efficiently. To deal with this tremendous amount of data Microsoft uses and has developed many Big Data services. Roeland will show how Microsoft now enables its clients to do the same using its Azure platform and what potential it has unlocked for some of our clients.

A get-together with drinks and snacks will be provided at the event.
