Description of the event

The concept of “Big Data” has currently no consensual definition but refers to the vast amount of data created by exponential computing activities and challenges opened by data storage and uses. The impacts of this fast-growing technology are currently not well perceived but Big data opens new perspectives both on technical (communication, storage, analysis) and societal (uses and users’ acceptance) points of view.

This project aims to discuss the rise of Big data technologies and their uses from French and Nordic viewpoints, putting into perspective the specificity of Nordic countries characterized by the highest Human Development indexes.

This project is based on a series of events shared out in Nordic countries as followed:

-          Denmark: Big Data and Food

-          Finland: Big Data and Smart Cities

-          Norway: Big Data and Energy

-          Sweden: Big Data and Health
