Craig Boundy, CEO of Experian North America, discusses how big data is being used as a force for good. Good for consumers, good for business, and good for society. He shares his perspective how Experian’s work in data and analytics has real-life applications.

1. DATA FOR Good

2. 90% of the world's data
has been created
in the last two years

3. Think about this
staggering number
Think about the speed by which we, humans
can create content, AND more importantly, think
about how you and I factor in that equation.

4. The explosion of Big Data has
created a need for analytics; our
analytic capabilities and insights
can help you interpret mass
amounts of Big Data.
— Craig Boundy,
CEO of Experian North America

5. Data is in our DNA:
• 30 years of global leadership
• More than 2,800 technologists and over
400 data scientists worldwide, including
global data labs in three major markets

6. Data is in our DNA:
• Applied research teams in advanced
analytics, machine learning and
computer science
• Ensuring the best fit of data and analytics
to optimize business performance

7. As the volume and variety of data increase
at a rapid pace, the ability to analyze the
relevant data successfully becomes
increasingly important to unlock its significant
value and transform the way businesses and
consumers interact.

8. Today we are living in a
data-driven economy. It’s
important that in today’s world
we not only acknowledge, but
embrace the power of data as a
force for good.
— Craig Boundy,
CEO of Experian North America

9. When we consider that
data is good, we think
of it in terms of:
• Good for our economy
• Good for consumers
• Good for society

10. When we use data for good,
we see it in the areas of
INNOVATION and the
creative license we give ourselves to look
at problems differently.

11. When we use data for good,
businesses are seeking
INNOVATIVE TECHNIQUES
and applications to capture the value that is
hidden within their data assets.

12. Experian DataLabs
provides a safe and secure environment for:
Partnership to enable breakthrough
data experimentation
Innovation to deliver solutions
to challenging problems

13. Experian DataLabs allows us to
work together on data and analytics
safely with the best people and
smartest technology.

CEO of Experian North America

14. We have had some remarkable
successes where we’ve been able
to identify previously undetected risks
and signals from data sets comprising
billions of transactions.
— Craig Boundy,
CEO of Experian North America

15. None of this can be achieved without
A CLEAR FOCUS
on using data as a force for good.

16. If we proactively advance data for good
with the right process, tools and people,
we have an opportunity to
TRANSFORM OUR ECONOMY
and the ways in which we operate within it.
