Speakers
Izabela Bartnicka
Digital University
Sir Martin Sorrell (Founder and CEO of WPP) said ‘Technology will never again change as slowly as it does today.’ Though artificial intelligence grows faster than we suspected few years back and in just 2 years there will be flying cars, we still haven’t started preparing for the digital future. Izabela provided us tools to successfully navigate in technological future.
Wojciech Daniło
CEO of Luna
Domain experts are data illiterate. Their skills are focused on domain expertise with less skills in statistical knowledge and coding. Data scientists are on the other end of spectrum – they have a statistical knowledge and coding skills but lack domain expertise. Qualified data scientists are unicorns. As you may notice between domain and data experts is huge communication gap. So far nobody knows how to do it right. Does Wojciech figured it out? He created Luna.
