Innovate in the Cloud

Life Sciences companies across the world realize more and more the benefits of moving their next-generation analytics platform to the cloud. It is easier to collaborate, easier to scale out, and it's more cost efficient – to name the most obvious benefits. Plus, additional use cases are much closer than in the on-premise world. Think of real-time interactions on a massive scale with a lot of sensor data coming from medical devices – or think of decentralized collaboration on one common platform.

SAS Viya offers unprecedented integration capability of R, Python and other languages. With decades of experience SAS is able to handle large amounts of data, putting models into production like never before, and innovates together with Microsoft on dedicated solutions in this area.

This roundtable will be a discussion around these and other possibilities with cloud analytics. Take the opportunity to raise your concerns, to approach senior leadership of Microsoft and SAS with your question and benefit from the lively discussion with your peers in other companies. We invite all strategic forward thinkers in the life science industry to contribute and share their thoughts around innovation in the cloud.
