Startup Grind Baku is excited to welcome our next speaker for the Fireside Chat - Gunay Kazimzade! You have probably heard it everywhere that you need a data strategy. Buzzwords like big data, digital transformation and artificial intelligence have infiltrated your company and it seems like all your competitors know what they need to do except you. Both AI and Machine Learning are touted to give businesses the edge they need, improve efficiencies, make sales and marketing better and even help in critical HR functions. However, the general thought is that both these technologies are meant for larger companies and it makes little sense for smaller ones to embrace it.
