KEYNOTE SESSIONS
APRIL 11: HOW DATA IS PUSHING THE FRONTIERS OF INNOVATION
On day two, we dive into the next innovation frontier. Explore how data has revolutionized innovation, aligning with Wired's Chris Anderson's 2008 prediction that the data deluge makes the scientific method obsolete. By finding patterns across unthinkably high dimensions, running parallel simulations that tease out the most likely candidates, and extracting meaning from data across every scientific field, barriers are falling by the wayside. Learn from industry leaders including AirBnB's Theresa Johnson on AI and Blockchain, pioneer Joseph Sirosh on the innovative landscape, and acclaimed author David McRaney on mindset transformation.
