Invisible Insights – Why Dark Data Is Your New Business Strategy

Event produced by: AMEC

In today’s digital acceleration, most of the data we have is visible. However there is a lot of hidden data in the socially connected world that is not easy to find or even analyze. This is known as dark data. Dark data is found in logs, metadata, text fields, video, audio and photos. And the volume of dark data outweighs the volume of visible data. How can you make sense of this dark data? The minute you leverage dark data to gain insights, the data becomes actionable and is no longer dark. In this webinar you will learn how dark data is valuable and can be your new business strategy.

key takeaways
1. Learn how AI tools will be able to analyze dark data to help organizations with valuable insights
2. Understand how to make use of non-textual data (because the data does not have to be dark)
3. Develop your own dark data strategy to unlock business value

“The importance of effectively measuring communication actions.”

Event produced by: GlobalNews Group

As usual, in November the “Measurement Month” is held, an initiative promoted by the International Association for Measurement and Evaluation of Communication (AMEC) that aims at pointing out the value of research, measurement and evaluation in the work carried out by communication departments.

For over 10 years, AMEC has been working to set up an integrated evaluation framework for communication professionals in order to show the impact of their work on the business of companies. Said organization holds that communication directors should work to lay down indicators and metrics to show not only the impact of their actions, but also of companies within their markets.

Carlos A. Díaz (Chairman of AMEC for Latin America and General Manager of GlobalNews Group) will be sharing new tools, methodologies and good practices in communication measurement and evaluation.

Using Data to Tell a Meaningful Story – a Challenger Bank Example

For today’s time-poor, resource constrained, communication’s professional, the issue isn’t a lack of data, the challenge is knowing how to use the data. Without measuring the things that matter it’s impossible to discover the true story that’ll drive productive and memorable conversations with business leaders.

In this webinar, learn:
• How two different interpretations of data might lead to two very different boardroom discussions
• Why context is king, and
• How the correct evaluation of data helps PR show its impact
