The end-goal is to increase the throughput of finding credible “facts of interest” (Intelligence) that represent threats to, or even opportunities for, a given industry or domain (e.g.

Each team is responsible for examining key industries or domains that are facing big data challenges, such as major brick-and-mortar retail (e.g. Walmart), we

The major facets of bureaucracy, technology and analytics should be included in the assessment. Strategic and o

Each group will select a team coordinator or leader who will help coordinate the overall progress of the team. Additionally, the group makeup will need to have at least one technical
