Title:
The Metamorphosis of Data at Wood Mackenzie
Abstract:
Wood Mackenzie have been on a journey of transformation from a highly influential but traditional Data Analyst business to becoming a leading technology company providing insights at scale to customers and partners in the global energy sector. From ingestion and processing to delivery to their Wood Mackenzie Lens® platform (https://www.woodmac.com/research/lens/). Angus will be focusing on the data platform which is being built at Wood Mackenzie and the journey that they have been through using a range of different technology. He will be talking about how the technology that they are using and how it is essentially going to benefit their data teams, the way data is uploaded, stored, shared, analysed and distributed to their clients.
