Leveraging the Big Data Opportunity

Arlington, VA, September 21, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Defense Strategies Institute is proud to announce the 4th Annual Big Data for Intelligence Symposium, occurring on November 29-30, 2016. As intelligence analysts struggle to keep up with the exponential increase of raw information produced by rapid advances in data collection, attendees will have the opportunity to discuss innovative policies, research, and technological solutions that revolve around the central theme of: “Leveraging the Big Data Opportunity.”

This year’s educational forum will provide intelligence organizations across the government with the opportunity to explore new techniques and solutions that can be used to more effectively exploit large, unstructured data sets in order to produce actionable intelligence for government and partners within the Intelligence Community. Leaders will discuss new ways to create meaningful progress towards solving some of the more complex, technical, and policy-centric issues that hinder the government’s ability to more efficiently process and exploit the potential benefits that big data has to offer.
