DESCRIPTION:Date: Saturday 12th March 2016\n\nTime: 2pm\n\nVenue: Mill Lan
 e Lecture Rooms\, Mill Lane\, CB2 1RW\n\nPrice: Free\n\nAs part of the Cam
 bridge Science Festival 2016\, the Alliance Française Cambridge is proud 
 to present the talk\, Big Data: the missing link on Saturday\, the 12th of
  March 2016.\n\nAs Big Data Chief Architect at Deloitte in the City\, Char
 tered Engineer in France\, MIT\, Stanford Ignite\, (fortunate enough to li
 ve in the glorious university town of Cambridge)\, Adrien Arculeo will sha
 re some of the insights he has gleaned from Big Data projects he leads for
  7 years for ambitious big companies\, and for no more ambitious but perha
 ps more innovative startups.\n\nAfter a very quick recap of what is Big Da
 ta\, and its most visible and shiny application Data Science\, Adrien will
  share some of the most pressing challenges of the field\, and will debunk
  in passing some counterproductive myths.\n\nFollowing with his own views\
 , he will discuss a central part of Big Data endeavours\, often forgotten 
 yet critical for success. He will argue also that it is not incidental tha
 t French chartered engineers excel at it\, and that this opens tremendous 
 opportunities when coupled with what British teams can bring to projects.\
 n\nAccustomed to adapt to senior business audiences at Deloitte\, as Subje
 ct Matter Expert\, Adrien will ask the audience to vote on what they want 
 to hear as a conclusion.\n\nEither he will present an in-depth case study 
 presenting what can typically go wrong in a Big Data project. Or he will g
 o about a breadth of industry applications.\n\nPlease note that after his 
 conference\, Adrien\, always interested in finding better ways to serve or
 ganisations in their quest for customer relevance\, performance and busine
 ss agility\, will be available for a Big Data projects clinic and provide 
 one-to-one recommendations for those interested.\n\n
