Big Data Tech was a success, now get ready for FAR Con!
We’d like to thank everyone who came to Big Data Tech on June 8. It was a day packed full of engaging conversations about technology. Special thanks to our speakers, sponsors and volunteers – you make these events possible, accessible and awesome. Some of the presentations are already available on the conference schedule document, and expect the rest soon. You can see some photos from Big Data Tech below.
Save the Date
Be sure to save the date for our next event: FAR Con, a Financial and Retail Conference on Analytics, is August 12 at the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management. Speaker and sponsor opportunities are still available, so contact us if you would like to share your ideas!
