Big Data: Your Business’ Natural Resource

24 Feb Big Data: Your Business’ Natural Resource

In our visit to the National Retail Federation’s Big Show last month, we had the opportunity to hear Ginni Rometty, the CEO of IBM, discuss the technological trends that are shaping the future of retail.

Thanks to the explosion of new data, the business landscape is shifting. Rometty sees data as the world’s vast new natural resource. She describes how big data and changing expectations are intersecting with a confluence of major technological shifts—cloud computing, analytics, social, and mobile—to fundamentally reshape commerce.

Following Rometty’s remarks, she and Terry Lundgren, Chairman, President, and CEO of Macy’s, engage in an in-depth dialogue on the implications of these shifts for retailers everywhere with Macys promo code.
