TEDx Talks | October 30, 2017 | Shannon explains the sheer amount of data that is produced on a daily basis today in comparison to recent data production. She explains "big data" — its successes, pitfalls, and why you can't simply treat it like a google search. Shannon also gives some examples from Rhode Island and beyond of how to harness big data for some big results! Shannon Shallcross is a data-enthusiast who believes that data holds the key to solving healthcare’s toughest challenges. She has served as an executive in the insurance and health industries over the past decade and has advised a broad range of Fortune 500 clients. As the co-founder and CEO of BetaXAnalytics, her company uses the power of data “for good” to improve the cost, transparency and quality of healthcare.
