Coming soon - Predictive Analytics World

Predictive Analytics World, February 16-17, 2010 at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco is turning into the biggest yet. I am going to be speaking on analytic journeys and giving a workshop on putting predictive analytics to work and there are some great keynotes from Andreas Weigen (ex-amazon.com), Kim Larsen (Charles Schwab) and conference chair Eric Siegel. As usual there are lots of great presentations (besides mine) and I highly recommend it. You can get use the code SPEAKPAW010 to get a 15% discount off a two-day pass and find more details at predictiveanalyticsworld.com. If you come, come by and say hi after my presentation or while I am introducing people in Track 2 on the first day.

And if you are interested in analytics, don't forget the study I am doing with B-Eye Network on business analytics - it will discuss the motivation for adopting business analytics and how you should approach the evaluation of business analytics as well as how business analytics fit within an enterprise and business architecture, risks and issues, benefits and challenges and more.
