Social media has the power to end careers, create diplomatic nightmares, fuel revolutions and even help find kidneys. Everywhere we look, social media activity is changing lives and industries.

Analyzing the current effects of real-time social data on the markets, this diverse panel of industry leaders will teach attendees how to spot, interpret and benefit from social chatter analysis; panelists will also discuss what’s next, as big data technologies continue to disrupt the way we live, play, work and invest.
