The data dilemma: too little is bad for profits, too much is bad for people.

In our increasingly data-driven world, striking the right balance between data usage and privacy concerns has become a paramount challenge. We invite you to join our thought-provoking evening session during which a guest speaker Michael Segalla will converge to dissect the multifaceted aspects of data usage, its implications on profitability, and the ethical considerations that surround it.
