Facilitating Data Science Collaboration and Faster Innovation: Panel Discussion

Patrick Harrison May 31, 2018 Talks

I was honored to serve as a panelist for the discussion Facilitating Data Science Collaboration and Faster Innovation as part of the inaugural Rev Data Science Leaders Summit at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco.

I joined Elena Grewal, Head of Data Science at Airbnb, Sivan Aldor-Noiman, Head of Data Science and Data Engineering at Wellio, and moderator Nancy Hersh, founder of Applied Analytics, to talk about ideas for accelerating data science progress at startups, tech companies, and established enterprises. Check out our conversation in the video below!

Up next

Managing Data Science in the Enterprise Josh Poduska, Chief Data Scientist at Domino Data Lab, and I teamed up to talk about how to manage data science as an organizational capability, the data science project lifecycle, common organization structures for data science teams, and more at the Strata Data Conference in New York.
