#162 Part 1- Enterprise Analytics: Transforming Your Organisation with Data with Abhi Seth, Vice President, Data, Insights & Analytics of TE Connectivity

Abhi Seth started his journey as an industrial engineer which he describes as his passion, and then found his way into research. His PhD is in mechanical engineering, and human-computer interactions, which he says was kind of a double major PhD.

Abhi started working with virtual reality applications for mechanical engineering and says back then it was about how to simulate environments and models where you create a suspension of disbelief for a user. So he set out to prove that VR was also valuable in solving real industrial problems which led him to join the Global R&D; centre for Caterpillar, the world’s largest mining construction equipment manufacturer.

Abhi currently leads a global data analytics team for TE Connectivity, a $14B electronics manufacturing company. He says he is always up for a challenge and learning something new, one of the reasons he decided to join TE Connectivity.

We learn from Abhi about the purpose of centres of excellence, the differences between data science COE, and a centralized department and how do you measure success with analytics.
