ABSTRACT

Mega-PAW 2019 clearly demonstrated that predictive analytics is ready for primetime and can lead to fantastic results, but success is far from guaranteed. The 720 attendees had seven tracks across five co-located conferences to choose from. With so much desired content, many found themselves missing a presentation if they hadn’t brought colleagues to cover concurrent sessions—a positive sign of a good conference. While there were some food misses, attendees found the conference interesting and had a takeaway from each speaker.
