DESCRIPTION
On Tuesday, 6 Aug 2013 the Canadian Chamber of Commerce hosted me for a very brief talk on Big Data. In the 20 minutes I stretched to 25, I shared a few interesting stories about big data, considered privacy implications, focused on opportunities in Hong Kong, and ruminated on the future. This is the deck I used.
