Editorial

Here is the number 1 of the newsletter of the very first group of innovative companies from the worldwide automotive and mobility French cluster Mov’eo dedicated to the digital technology and big data named INI.
If 2016 dedicated the maturity of Big Data for all the economic sectors such as retail, insurance, bank, smart city… 2017 will be the year of the algorithm and its applications.
Indeed without algorithms Big Data is of no use.
From now, it is a question for those companies which understood the wealth of the data which they could collected to be able to give them some meaning and value.
Insurance, bank, automotive, tourism…all these sectors are concerned by this fundamental revolution which will allow the enterprises to develop new products and services.
That’s all part of INI, gathering 4 innovative companies which have developed over more than 20 years an experience in the Internet of connected objects and Big Data. INI aims to share its knowhow with all of these economic actors committed to the redefining of their “customer experience”.
So, let us wish to you all a very happy new year hoping that 2017 will dedicate INI as your future reference partner for your Iot and Big Data projects.
