4. The BIG Idea BIG
Big Data Public Private Forum
The approach of BIG to contribute to high quality research can be summarized as
follows:
•Not only technology, but also business, policy and regulation;
•Not only generic plans for research and adoption, but specific plans for those
sectors that are positioned for greater gains from the use of Big Data;
•Not only theoretical activities including roadmaps, coordination and dissemination
aiming at future actions, but also actions in the course of the project to foster
understanding and adoption of current technology solutions;
•Not only development activities in the a limited timeframe (the duration of the
project), but the creation of an operational framework (including stakeholder
engagement and leadership, organizational structures and technical infrastructure)
as a starting point for future work that will go beyond the project duration.
