Tue 2 May, 13:00-15:00, BB 165, FB event

At Centraal Beheer we have a large amount of data available. Our passion would be to track all of it, but then we would be busy with that day and night. We try to go beyond just gaining insights through the data, we also try to use and apply our models in practice, show the added value and to learn from what did and did not work. Our analysts try to impact all the different facets of our company through big data and analytics. On the 2nd of May Yory Wollerich, who is team lead Centraal Beheer Marketing Intelligence, and Diede Kemper, who is intern Artificial Intelligence, will tell you more about the cases and problems we are currently focused on. With free lunch, so see you there!
