International Keynote Presentation: Developing an Analytics Centre of Excellence- Lessons Learned from the Field
The City of Edmonton's Analytics Centre of Excellence (ACE) has set a new standard for Business Intelligence and Advanced Analytics across a broad range of municipal services. By leveraging new techniques and methodologies such as Data Mining, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, ACE has demonstrated, through tangible Proof of Concepts and Pilot Projects, that analytics can transform business processes in a manner never previously envisioned. ACE broke new ground and experimented frequently, learning hard lessons along the way - lessons that allowed ACE to streamline its approach to solving business problems using data and analytics. With an adapted approach and equipped with new methodologies and techniques, the process of turning raw data into insight and insight into action have become more sustainable and achievable at the City of Edmonton. During this presentation you will get details on how the City of Edmonton first set up ACE, review some data and analytics success stories as well as get insight into common pitfalls in developing an analytics capability.

Presentation: Developing a Data Literate Workforce
By 2020, revenues from big data and analytics products and services will eclipse $200 billion. Since 1993, Qlik have been helping customers making those investments and sharpen their competitive edge in an aggressive global economy.But for many, there’s a major stumbling block. Qlik’s research shows only 24% of business decision makers, from junior managers to the C-suite, feel fully confident in their ability to read, work with, analyse and argue with that data — the fundamental skills that define a person’s data literacy.The good news is that the majority (78%) said they would be willing to invest more time and energy into improving their data skillset. But what’s the best way to turn that interest into action?A Chief Data Officer (CDO) is the ideal candidate to lead and advocate for your data literacy initiative. A CDO who is expert in, and enthusiastic about, working with data can inspire the organisation to embrace a culture of data literacy. And when it’s embedded in the CDO’s own mission, potential resistance to a data literacy program is greatly reduced.

Presentation: Thinking Cities, Catching Up with the Growing Demand – A Call for Collaboration
It is forecasted by 2021 over 21 billion connected devices will hold the beginning of a new era – an era that sees man and technology come together in unprecedented ways to empower every aspect of our surroundings. The era of Autonomous World with new potentials for businesses, society and humanity. We expect the autonomous world to make:
- our journey safer and faster,
- our businesses and cities more efficient, and
- our society a better place.
Today, we have maps that are self-healing, cars are getting closer to drive themselves, the digital technology is evolving beyond our imagination and yet industry is still dealing with fragmented and disparate data sources which slows down realization of the full potentials. To encourage collaboration and enable its autonomous world vision, HERE Technologies, backed by Audi, Bosch, BMW, Continental, Daimler, Intel and Pioneer, is heavily invested in the development of its Open Location Platform – an open and complete data ecosystem for all to participate, collaborate and benefit.

Keynote Presentation: Creating a Data Driven Culture – Leading by Example
As we continue to transform our service delivery, we knew that a data driven culture would underpin this. How can we make things easier? How can we help people comply with the law? Which of our services should be online? All of these questions are easier to answer in a data-driven culture. But how do you get staff to engage with that while still doing their normal work? We used a combination of methods that we’d love to share with you. The shift in culture is already transforming how we work.
