On 5th and 6th of December, the Open Source Summit gathered in Paris the European open source community.
Knowage Labs contributed to the event through a talk held by Paolo Raineri (KNOWAGE business developer). He gave a brief overlook on how KNOWAGE suite enables tech people to empower the end-users experience showing how filling the gap between tech and non-tech users is the future essential feature of the business analytics world.
We also promoted two talks held by Alexandre Nasry (Synaltic) and Gabriele Ruffatti. In the first one, Alexandre showed how to simplify data access for all organisations and ecosystems with Dremio project. The second one, was on Digital Ethic in the post-truth era. Gabriele presented the challenges posed by digital revolution and AI.
