Big Data Took Center Stage at IBF Best Practices Conference and Leadership Forum
Cupertino, CA, February 14, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Forecast Errors newsletter reported that the Institute of Business Forecasting & Planning – IBF Blog, recently had Tom Savage discuss the IBF Best Practices Conference and Leadership Forum. Big Data was an underlying commonality between speakers and had to address at some point in their company’s journey in forecasting as well. There were consummate professionals and experts in the field from companies such as L’Oreal, Coca-Cola, Motorola Mobility, Tastykake, Hershey’s, and Tempur Sealy International just to name a few. Collectively there were hundreds of years of experience all in one place and very willing to share their experiences and expertise. During the Executive Leadership Forum on the first day, it became clear that this conference was going to be a bit different than those of the past.
