How Big is Big Data?

Moderation James Quirk, Labels & Labeling

Panelists Bert Visscher (CCL Healthcare), Cees Schouten (Geostick) and Marius van Lith (MPS)

Covid19 and the disconnection of global supply chains have highlighted the virtues (and pitfalls) of Industry 4.0. The internet of things has helped to support global connectivity, and workflow automation has enabled the industry to control the damage of workforce disruptions. But what IS ‘Big Data’ and what are the longer-term implications?

• With so many laws to protect ownership and security is the use of data actually possible in the world to a great enough effect?
• What drives the use of it in modern printing works; efficiency, quality, transparency to customer portals etc. What is it the client wants … do they even know..?
• Will the use of data and digitalisation drive us from a skill-based industry into a science-based workplace?
• Do we need to standardise the language of data?
• How do we, in this interconnected business environment, protect our MIS systems from sabotage by data hacking or ransoming?
• Do we need to speak of ‘continuous development and innovation’ rather than ‘continuous improvement’?
