Where Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Audience and Revenue Intersect
The global conference is for media and advertising executives and data practitioners who are seeking to create Big Data strategies, and leverage data analytics and artificial intelligence technologies in order to engage audiences and grow revenue.
Hong Kong is a hotbed of artificial intelligence startups and established AI companies. Our delegation will visit two powerful AI companies that directly impact the bottom line for media companies: Customer service bots and e-commerce and advertising enabling AI strategies.
China is vying for the No. 1 spot in the world in artificial intelligence and Big Data innovation. The study tour will give delegates a rare opportunity to visit some of the most innovative, data-driven tech companies on the planet.
The delegation will visit major tech companies in Beijing during two dynamic days of programming. The group of executives will learn about best practices in Big Data and artificial intelligence strategy, organisation, technology, and business development through powerful case studies from top data scientists, artificial intelligence lab directors, data analysts, product developers, and business strategists at each company.

World Newsmedia Network’s Martha L Stone created Big Data for Media Week in 2013, while she was a research fellow at the University of Oxford’s Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. Since then, the conference has been held in London four times, New York once, and will be held in Hong Kong for the first time in December 2017.
