3. “Big data is nothing without big judgment.
You have to commit to action. At the end of
the day you have to make sure that your
investment, and connecting a dark asset,
achieves ultimate business value.”

4. “I first talked about dark data on my blog to
introduce it as both a threat and a potential
opportunity for most companies, and I think
the threat comes in when there’s a lot of data
silos that exist in enterprise.”

of every CEO and every CIO because if you

probably will.”

data, in order for this stuff to really create

7. “To become a true data-driven organization,
you have to empower a large number of
people in your organization to work with data
tools, understand what data they're looking at,
drive their own insights, and make their
decisions around them.”

8. “You need to have a very good framework in
sorting out where business value lies. Think
about, ‘What is that dark asset?’
‘How am I going to capture that data?’
‘How am I going to plug-in loads to
impact process?’”
“You need to be able to articulate business
value in the language of that business owner.”

assets and dark data. The other industry that
has a huge opportunity is clearly retail.”

business processes.”
