Democratization of data: How Veezoo uses Artificial Intelligence to solve Business Intelligence.

In the information age, fast and intelligent access to data can be a company’s key competitive advantage. But with the exponential growth in the amount and complexity of information, the challenge for the data team in making insights accessible is greater than ever.

Will we be able to solve this challenge using traditional business intelligence tools? Or will we continue with bottlenecks and dependencies on technical manpower?

The event will take place at Swissnex headquarters in São Paulo: Avenida Paulista 1754, 10th floor.

This is an exclusive event and is not open to the public. Invitations are individual and intended for a select group of Business Intelligence, Analytics and Reporting professionals, as well as managers interested in using data more effectively.
