Fuelling the digital age is data, the new ‘oil’ that is transforming the world at a speed that has never been seen before.

Harnessing this diverse commodity to power the digital business is complex. Devising a strategy that taps into what is an often unused resource can stop your business from being left behind by the competition.

Becoming a data driven organisation unlocks new opportunities for customers, employees and businesses, but whilst the potential gains are clear and easy to understand, the journey isn’t simple.

For those looking to unlock the power of data there is help.

Computer Business Review is using its heritage as a leading technology publication for over 20 years to offer a programme of debate and insight into data intelligence and innovation with its first conference – Data Connect.

Taking place at Sofitel London St James on the 13th September 2018, Data Connect will bring together IT decision-makers and industry leaders that specialise across a number of key sectors.
