Data as Entrepreneurship

At the 2022 ICSB World Congress, I shared how GWU’s Master of Science in Business Analytics shaped my view of entrepreneurship’s future. My talk highlighted a recurring issue I’ve seen across organizations: they collect vast amounts of data but lack clarity on how to derive value from it. (Watch the talk on YouTube.)

I argued that data science and entrepreneurship share a common drive: turning available resources into something new and valuable. As technology advances, the people who can pair analytical precision with the ability to lead and execute will be best positioned to shape new businesses, products, and ways of thinking.
