Is standard software and innovation a contradiction?

Get an update about the importance of the “intelligent enterprise” and its opportunities and challenges. What role are the new technologies playing? And how is experience management influencing the business processes?

Daniel Kölsch will break this down and talk about the exciting innovation cases which grew out of the SAP’s Mode-2 Garage and the methodolgy and concepts we use. Our Mode-2 Garage is also available for your innovation cases, use this opportunity: we want to see you go live.

The General Assembly 2019 of the Data+Service Alliance will take place on October 02, 2019 at FHNW campus, Riggenbachstrasse 16 (ORI), CH-4600 Olten. More details will follow in the next months.

The GA is co-located with the Match-Making event, which takes place earlier in the afternoon.

Like the previous times, the GA will not only be a place for the members’ main contacts to exercise their official voting rights, but also place for everyone else from our Alliance to get into the details of what makes up our network, and to get in touch. The GA will be followed by a networking Apero at the end.

We encourage everyone interested in joining us by registering themselves via email  here. You can use the following text:

In collaboration with Aspaara Algorithmic Solutions

Rapid Prototyping! We share stories and insights about frameworks, best practices and tools in software prototyping. Rapid prototyping cares less about planning and more about an adaptive process. It is used when design specifications are not known in the beginning.

The Use-Case Talks Series will take place in TECHNOPARK® Zürich on 31.10.2019 at 18:00.

The Use-Case Talk Series is organized by Aspaara Algorithmic Solutions AG on behalf of Swiss Alliance for Data-Intensive Services.

Participation is free of charge — interesting discussions at the networking Apéro are included!

Use-Case Talk Series: Best Practices in Data Science Projects

08.05.2019
Zurich Technopark
(hosted by Aspaara Algorithmic Solutions AG)

What are the best practices in Data Science projects? We will gather and share knowledge about reproducibility of results, practical guidelines for data acquisition, algorithm development, computational analysis and how to organise data science tasks in a modular manner.

Besides technical practices we also touch business related ones: How to define key question, how to test and validate models on a regular basis?

Talk 1: Is fair benchmarking possible?

Abstract: Benchmarking is both a curse and a blessing: on the one hand it is essential to assess its own position compared to those of the competitors, on the other hand benchmarking is also used to set target in order to increase productivity and efficiency. In my presentation I will show a quantitative method how to make fair comparisons to identify best practice and how to avoid unrealistic targets that can otherwise lead to demotivation and lower productivity.

Speaker: Thomas Herrmann studied mathematics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) and subsequently worked intensively on timetable creation and new operational possibilities in the field of traffic management for railways during his dissertation. Thereafter, he worked in the private sector for more than 12 years until summer 2018. During this time he conducted several studies in the field of infrastructure management for roads and railways, including benchmarking. Now he is a lecturer at ZHAW, at the Institute for Data Analysis and Process Design (IDP).

Talk 2: Learning from the data science trenches

Abstract: Delivering data science projects is top of mind for many organizations. But how do you ensure that projects are successful and what should you be cautious about? Come to this talk to hear from Marc Schöni about this.

Speaker: Marc Schöni holds a Master’s degree in Data Science and works as a Technical Specialist for AI & Advanced Analytics with Microsoft in Switzerland. On a daily basis, he engages with customers to help them identify suitable first use cases and the most appropriate technologies for successful implementation.
