Workforce of the Future: Improving Data Analytics & Knowledge Management



Wednesday, October 4, 2017, Kuala Lumpur, Impiana KLCC Hotel, Kuala Lumpur



The "Workforce of the Future" will use human expertise together with software expertise to get the best understanding of what is going on - whether specialising in subsurface, production or facilities operation.

Advanced data analytics will be an important component of this - but also modelling what experts in different roles really need to understand.

Workers will have a digital experience which is clear and transparent - where they get the best possible situation awareness and can continually learn.

Our 6th conference in KL will be a showcase for some of the exciting projects happening in Malaysia to do more with data, help it compliment people's expertise, and improve how it is managed.
