In 2013, interest in big data, analytics and data science jumped out of the gate strong early in the year – and grew from there. More people than ever are interested in what big data can do for their organization, how analytics can give them an edge, and how to find, train and best use data scientists. The two guests dove into those topics and gave us a look at what they think will be the hottest topics and developments of 2014.
