Summary:

How are companies faring against the onslaught of data and digital disruption? How has The Economist transformed itself through data? And what lessons can brands - and business leaders - learn from these experiences? Join us for a lively discussion with Kenneth Cukier, The Economist's Senior Editor for Data and Digital Products, a bestselling author, TED Talker and the mastermind behind the 173-year-old publication's data success.

Kenneth will share his views on digital storytelling, new data-visualisation techniques, data-analytics, and how to find hidden narratives in data and communicate them with verve. The insights apply to all companies struggling to make sense of the data deluge. Interviewing Kenneth will be Kate Joynes-Burgess of Cohn & Wolfe, who heads its digital and content operations across EMEA and will be sharing insights from successful brand publishers who directly engage - and gather data to better understand - their target audiences and their influencers.
