Sessions
Posters
Here's your chance to be recognized by the analytics community for your work in the field. Poster presentations provide an excellent opportunity for
students and analytics practitioners to present their projects in a one-to-one setting and receive professional feedback from leaders in the field of
analytics.
The Analytics 2012 Poster session is open to all analytics practitioners – from corporate or academic fields.
Posters will be located inside the Exhibit Hall and accessible throughout the conference. We request that authors make themselves available during dedicated Exhibit Hall hours to speak with attendees and answer questions.
