*Track Description*
Technological advancements have contributed to the generation of massive amounts of data that unleash huge opportunities not only for organizations but also for society. The application of business analytics, business intelligence, and big data approaches enables us to integrate, analyse, visualize, and ultimately understand and improve the complex processes that make up our digitized world. Such approaches are enablers for knowledge discovery transforming societies and organizations. Over the past few years, there has been enthusiasm around business analytics as organizations explore how they can leverage their data to create and maintain a competitive advantage. Improved communication, more sustainable processes, as well as new business models are examples for the innovative use of disparate data sources (such as mobile, the Internet of Things, streaming data or social media data).
In addition to the potential of transforming businesses, business analytics, business intelligence and big data can contribute to better human health and well-being, improved public services, and better support of environmental and climate causes.
