Big Data - From hype to reality

Tucked away in a charming cobbled courtyard off Bond Street, Hush remains one of Mayfair's favourite secret locations. Hush carries you away from the hectic buzz of the Central London streets to a haven of elegance and atmosphere, serving crowd-pleasing dishes in a glamorous setting.

Organisations that implemented key technologies in their day early on, such as ERP systems reported productivity, market share and capitalization increases. With the disruption caused by big data, what opportunities exist for senior decision makers to exploit today? What use cases exist for cutting cost and increasing market share in verticals such as telecoms, financial services, logistics, retail, utilities and elsewhere? Next, what are the best strategies for managing stakeholders, and what can be done to pull commercial and technical decision makers towards the same journey? Finally, what is the best route from concept to deployment?

During this CBR Dining Club event we will address these challenges and opportunities facing organisations like yours. Our partners for the event are Hortonworks, a software company born out of Yahoo! that focuses on the development and support of Apache Hadoop, an open source platform for handling large scale data.

So do join us for a night of insightful talks, lively conversation, informal networking and fine dining.
