Getting your organization to support building new data capabilities is challenging. You need support for investment, executive stakeholders willing to take some risk, and a good team to deliver on new technologies. Learn how to accelerate your data roadmap, reduce risk, give your team hands-on experience with new tech, and get buy-in for investment via targeted proofs of concept (POC). In this session, we will outline how to drive the advancement of your data capabilities through POCs and provide a couple of real-world examples of them in practice. The session will also highlight a few tools and techniques to reduce the time to market with your POC.
