In this episod­­e of On Point with Korem, I sat down with Dean Stoecker, Founder, former CEO and now executive chairman of the board of Alteryx. Dean founded the company in 1997 first as Spatial Re-Engineering Consultants or SRC and changed its name to Alteryx in 2010. Dean spoke about how his platform evolved and how he coined the phrase “Data is the rocket fuel of GIS…the elixir of life”. We started our conversation on the evolution of the technology and growth of geospatial as a part of analytics. Dean shared that “if we could nail geospatial and make it easy, all the other analytics as part of the analytic continuum would be ‘drop dead’ easy…”. Enjoy this discussion with one of the premier CEOs in the field of digital transformation!
