Big Data and Artificial Intelligence transforming Business and Society
The EBDVF is the main event of the European Big Data and Data-Driven AI Research and Innovation community. In 2017 the Big Data Value Association (BDVA) and the European Commission (DG CNECT) joined forces to create this event fusion of the former EDF (European Data Forum) and the BDVA Summit. The 2019 edition entailed talks and discussion panels on “Big Data and Artificial Intelligence transforming Business and Society”. You can watch the EBDVF2019 summary video here.
