Abstract
BI 2.0: Introducing Predictive Analytics!
The Predictive Analytics software industry is now picking up more steam than ever as most companies now realize they cannot continue to compete on lagging indicators. The most cutting-edge businesses have “secretly” utilized Predictive Analytics for years and are now watching the technology go mainstream to the masses. This seminar will provide the audience a general introduction to Predictive Analytics and will also offer real-world examples of how corporations are currently using Predictive Analytics to stay competitive in today’s “lean and mean” climate.
