Analytics by Design

Each organization has its own maturity curve in leveraging artificial intelligence. Some larger organizations hire AI consultants to help them navigate the complexity within data and analytics initiatives, while small players like SMEs and non-profit organizations tend to steer away from AI adoption due to financial and other resource commitments.

In this episode, an analytics democratization enthusiast, Eric Huang, the founder and CEO of Advanced Analytics and Research Lab, shares his views on who might be left behind in this AI race and what organizations can do to ensure they can move forward in the right direction in their respective analytics journeys. Eric also shares some pivotal moments during the time when he made a career change and the challenges that he needed to overcome to become a data science practitioner.

During the podcast, you will hear the following:

  • How organizations can get started with something small and build incrementally to move up in the AI maturity curve

  • Why you (probably) need to up your game in technical skills and find your niche in this overly crowded market

  • For all aspiring entrepreneurs out there, start experimenting your ideas with minimal costs but expect the path gets steeper as your start-up evolves
