It could be time for a digital analytics check-up.
In this webcast, Jim Sterne, Founder of eMetrics Summit and Digital Analytics Association and Jenny Elliott of CrossView, explore which marketing metrics are essential, and how marketers can understand and use this data to maximize return.

Living in an era of data surrealism: ROI of linked data at work (BioData 2018)Hans Constandt
Lately I gave some talks about the ROI of Guided Search using Linked Data where I talk about the fact that we live in an era of data surrealism with all the buzzwords BigData, IoT, AR, VR, AI, Deep Learning, Machine Learning, BlockChain and so on. But wefocus on "DATA FIRST" building a solid, scalable, transparant and reusable data foundation using semantic web tech.
And yes, ROI is key as with gluing all kind of -omics data together, the most important omics is econ-omics ... with a little bit of c-omics ;-)

When sales leaders have real-time data at their fingertips, they’ll always be more efficient and successful. Whether it’s identifying opportunities, understanding who top performers are, validating forecasts, highlighting neglected opportunities, or developing talent, better and faster access to real-time data generates more revenue.
But running a data-driven sales org is not an easy task.
Domo polled more than 400 sales leaders and managers across a range of industries to understand their relationship with data. 73 percent of survey respondents said they would consume data more if they could see it one place, and 66 percent said they would consume data more if they could see it in real time.
The problem is, sales leaders often can’t access the data they need. It’s a company’s responsibility to turn data-hungry sales pros into data-driven selling machines. Every minute a sales rep spends creating or analyzing reports takes time away from prospects and customers. Non sales activities are killers in terms of nailing your number.
How does social media drive consumer decisions? And how can you use that knowledge to drive real estate sales? Learn how to translate the latest insight from Vision Critical into an actionable marketing strategy. Presented by Alexandra Samuel at the LeadingRE conference, 2015.
Fooling ourselves with data – Chad Jennings, MooJAM London
As businesses and product managers we love to shout about being "data-driven." Data is obviously fundamental, but with an industry average conversion rate of 3%, most of our data
is internal-facing and biased towards the minority of existing customers who have successfully converted. What about the majority who are non-customers? We are often blind to why non-customers fail, yet break-through products can come from understanding the potential customers who never show up in your dashboards and models. Let’s stop navel gazing and consider how we can better uncover insights that can drive growth, as well as useful, usable and delightful products.
How to Talk about AI to Non-analaysts - Stampedecon AI Summit 2017StampedeCon
While artificial intelligence for self-driving cars and virtual assistants gets a lot of the notion of communicating the needs, effectiveness and measurements is complicated when speaking “geek”! The work of an analyst, however, does not just involve conducting data analysis within but communicating, championing and speaking simply when talking to the organization, clients and management.
Making Predictive Analytics Productive: Are You Learning from Social Data? Social Media Today
Thanks to improved measurement tools, it is now standard among social strategists to present hard data on ROI and build strategies backed by statistics and charts - a far cry from the early years of social media. But while this data makes for great PowerPoints, concerns remain that numbers don't tell the whole story. What does "reach" really mean? Can influencers really be ranked on a single numerical spectrum?
Enter predictive analytics: Advocates suggest that simply pulling numbers from Big Data tools isn't enough - you need to match the data to the story that you are trying to tell, and liberate information from what Wes Nichols calls "swim lanes". Each piece of an organization has a different picture of the data, and only combined do they provide meaningful lessons.
This webinar is designed as a heart-to-heart conversation about the right and wrong ways to make use of predictive analytics.

We’re all well-versed in the realms of digital transformation when it comes to businesses and brands, but what can we learn from our third-sector friends? Cheri will share her experiences working with nationwide charity Breast Cancer Care. She will showcase the tactics they used to get quick wins from social testing and to boost conversion rates. She’ll also prove that a digital culture means more than just Slack; why it matters and how you can start seeing the change, fast.

As a marketer, you’re busy. We get it. You have a lot of priorities to juggle:
• How many leads are you bringing in?
• Which channels are providing the most leads?
• Is your budget running low?
• How are leads converting down the funnel?
• How can you get the most accurate measure of ROI?
At every turn, you need data—and lots of it. But in the past decade alone, marketers’ trouble with data has gone through a dramatic shift: instead of being too difficult to obtain, data is now too difficult to maintain.
In fact, IBM reports that 71% of CMOs feel unprepared to handle today’s “data explosion,” saying that “most CMOs are struggling in one vital respect—providing the numbers that demonstrate a return on investment (ROI) for marketing.”
This survey report reveals marketers’ troubles and successes with data, and it reveals important trends that are defining the data-driven marketer.

How Could Data Transform the Arts - TCG 2017 (with notes)Devon Smith
As data has gotten bigger, cheaper, faster, and easier to analyze, it has transformed sectors from transportation to healthcare, politics to education. Could the arts be next? This session will explore dozens of case studies where theatres, museums, film festivals, dance companies and other arts organizations are already using data in provocative ways and what effect it’s having. From A/B testing to CRMs and APIs, from measuring revenue performance to social impact, whether it’s creating interactive dashboards or works of art, nearly every department in a theatre is, or could be, using data in some way. This session will discuss what data arts organizations are collecting and using, share some tips for how to develop a culture of data at your theatre, and identify opportunities in the arts field to better leverage data sets, analysis tools, and measurement best practices. Data skeptics, data geeks, and data-phobes are all encouraged to join the discussion!

Startup Metrics: The Data That Will Make or Break Your Business by Alistair C...Lean Startup Co.
If you’re being methodical about growth, analytics matters. For startups, analytics is about measuring the right metric, in the right way, to produce the change the business needs most at that point in time. That’s harder than it sounds: you need a solid understanding of your business model; an awareness of what’s most at risk; and a clear idea of where to draw the line between success and failure. Metrics measure not only the health of your business, but also your journey to product/market fit; the value of your company; and the reliability of your underlying infrastructure. Join Lean Analytics co-author Alistair Croll for an all-day, in-depth look at analytics, measurement, and working with data. We’ll cover:
The five stages of growth every company goes through, and how they guide your choice of metrics
Six business-model archetypes and their unique measurement challenges
What “good enough” looks like for fundamental metrics
How to think about cohorts, segments, percentiles, and histograms
Measuring and aggregating infrastructure KPIs such as latency and availability
Using the Lean Analytics cycle to improve through experimentation
This workshop is relevant for people working in standalone startups and for corporate entrepreneurs. It will combine presentations, case studies, and interactive discussion of the audience’s specific measurement challenges. Attendees need not be technical but should come armed with a basic understanding of web analytics, business metrics, and their current business model, plus a willingness to share with one another.

Data and Analytics are all the rage these days and the appeal to use data to inform comms strategy is coming from all sides. You're collecting data everywhere. In your CRM, in your offline database, from your direct mail programs, from your social media, your events, etc. Perhaps you're even doing data appends from outside sources. You’re swimming in data! However, data in and of itself is useless. How do you get to a place where you’re able to transform your data into something meaningful?

Using Big Data to Reveal Consumer Values and Inform StorytellingRavi Iyer
These are slides from a session at FutureM (Future of Marketing) Boston 2013. This joint session from Zenzi Communications + Ranker showed how online data can be used to understand the deeper values and motivations of consumers. We are inundated with graphs of data (e.g. social graphs, interest graphs, opinion graphs). We’ll give you techniques for mining actionable insight from graphs of data, which when studied correctly, can allow you to go beyond the specific interests of your customers and begin to understand their deeper motivations. By understanding their lasting motivations, brands can begin to find customers who will resonate with their strengths and tell value-specific stories that will turn customers into advocates.
Analytics is more than "slap on the google analytics tag and we're done". Any good Digital project starts out with a good set of Goals & Objectives...but when was the last time that you measured the result of those goals & objectives? Lean Analytics is about integrating the analytics in the whole process...from the start. In a LEAN way

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
