“Fast Data is a buzzword we hear in many interactions with our various clients and in simple terms; Fast Data is the ability for businesses to leverage multiple streams of real-time data to make in-the-moment decisions. EOH Connect this year, will unpack this categorically for our attendees,” explains Rob Godlonton, CEO of the EOH ICT business. “The disruptive nature of Fast Data is improving business processes and driving operational and cost efficiencies like never before hence the theme for this years’ conference,” adds Godlonton.
