Maria Pacella, SVP, Private Equity and Portfolio Manager of the Pender Technology Inflection Fund, continues her conversation with Rich Miller about data management. Rich has an interesting take on data as an asset that needs nurturing, feeding and care, in order to fulfill its potential. Some companies are well positioned, and some have a way to go, especially against the backdrop of increased regulation. Rich provides insights around how AI machine learning can be applied to data analysis and predictions, and touches on the difference between data science and data engineering. He gives an example of the challenges and outcomes of a recent project.
