Data for Business
Data represents a real opportunity for every organization across the world no matter the field or the size, it is the new oil. When well used, data provides actionable insights to organizations in order to make better decisions and maximize opportunities. Concretely, data helps organizations know what happened (Descriptive Analysis), understand why it happened (Explicative Analysis), predict what will happen (Predictive Analysis) and define what to do to achieve a goal (Prescriptive Analysis).
87% of data science projects never make it to production (VentureBeat, 2019). The success of a data project relies on a good data strategy and and qualified data engineering team. We tend to recruit many Data Scientists and Data Analysts but few Data Engineers, resulting in data that are often unavailable and of poor quality, ultimately leading to the abandonment of data projects. As a Data Science Professional, my main mission is to help organizations define and implement a comprehensive data strategy.
If you are looking for a Data Expert to help your organization in the Data Transformation process, I'm the person you need. Let's discuss our collaboration. I will help define your data strategy and implement your analytical project successfully.
