Data Leadership
Icimo helps organizations become data driven through a combination of software and services enabling data
discovery, visualization, and analysis.
“When you empower users to answer their own questions,
you transform the user-data relationship.”
“Data is the new oil. Data is just
like crude. It’s valuable, but if
unrefined it cannot really be used”
~ Clive Humby

Big Data
Big Data Facts
• Every 2 days, we create as much data as the world did from the beginning of creation through 2003.
• The amount of data transferred over mobile networks increases by (guess) per month.
• By 2020, we will have over 10 Billion Mobile Smart Devices will be in use.
• Trillions of sensors will be in place by the year 2020 to monitor, track and communicate.
• For a typical Fortune 1000 company, just a 10% increase in data accessibility will result in more than $65 million additional net income.
• At the moment less than (guess) of all data is ever analyzed and used, just imagine the potential here.

Big Data Reality
Call it big data if you:
• Run out of memory
• Run out of storage
• Run out of time
• Have challenges moving it
…And
Require new skills, technologies or processing to aid in unlocking the value in the data.
