While enterprises continue to invest more, driving the Big Data Analytics market to grow at an expected 12% CAGR through 2027, it is estimated that 85% of big-data projects fail. Furthermore, a recent survey of US executives suggesting that 63% of them do not believe that their companies are analytics driven, points to opportunities to derive greater value from investments in Data Science. Starting data science initiatives with broad consensus on business challenges to be addressed, and clear articulation of success criteria contributes to an enterprise’s ability to make appropriate investments in the right skills, tools, platform, and processes. Organizations also need an effective approach to operationalize data science to derive the anticipated business benefits. In this webinar, you will learn about recent trends impacting Data Science, common challenges, and best practices to operationalize Enterprise Data Science.

This presentation will share lessons learned and experiences from implementing an innovation mindset for an R&D organization. We are all busy but innovation is a lifeblood for the business. It generates novel ideas for products or services that make an significant impact. It is fundamental that your team is encouraged to participate and that a culture of exploring new concepts and technologies is established. Even within large corporations employees can demonstrate an intrapreneurship spirit. In order to be effective and efficient, establishing a systematic approach is key. Start small, fail fast and push constant experimentation. Make the process simple to follow, support a sense of community and above all make it fun and rewarding.

Continuous Improvement has never been more important as the world events and business climate changes daily. Having worked in big business, small business and even non profits, successful continuous improvement depends on a company culture shift towards constant innovation. Without the culture change, it becomes the flavor of the month and fades away quickly. Simple steps and tools towards implementation helps ensure sustainment. Utilizing these tools and more importantly a system of checks and balances will ensure continuous improvement is embedded into your company's culture for years to come.

AI is THE topic of the hour - praised to solve the most pressing problems of humankind while at the same time damned as the end of civilization as we know it. In manufacturing, every company today has been told by service providers, vendors, and the media that they need to invest in AI or face certain failure. At the same time, there is a lack of understanding of what 'AI' actually means and how it can create real value in a manufacturing and digital supply network context. In this presentation, I will provide an overview of AI in Smart Manufacturing Systems, from the basics and its history, to how it is applied, what the challenges are, how it can create value, providing a few real-life examples, and ending with a few concrete recommendations how to successfully approach the topic for your specific situation.
