Webinar Description

 

The business information survey is the world’s longest-running survey of business information professionals. The survey is based on primary interviews with senior information professionals working in a variety of industry and business environments, including banking, finance, legal, education, manufacturing and 3rd sector. A key theme in the 2018 survey was the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on organisations, their information teams, and the services and resources they provide. It is clear that AI is already a hot topic and survey participants talked about AI projects, ranging from pilot to fully-implemented, and issues, both positive and negative that they have experienced, or see in the future as AI moves forward. This webinar will dive into those real examples and highlight the key takeaways from the 2018 business information survey.
