Dr. Maarten Vanhoof is an expert in (big) data analytics. As a renowned researcher, he has collaborated with some of the world's top universities, including University College London, MIT, and NYU, as well as leading companies like Orange and Foursquare, tackling their most challenging big data problems. His work has earned him a reputation as a go-to authority in the field.
Beyond research, Maarten has served as an advisor to decision-makers across the globe. From UN commissioners to official statisticians and ministries around the world, he has helped guide critical decisions with his expertise in data analytics.
As an entrepreneur, Maarten is building innovative data products, such as Local League and data visualizations, while also running workshops that empower companies to leverage their data more effectively. Currently, he is in the process of founding his own data consultancy agency, expanding his influence even further in the industry.
But none of this really matters to you, does it? What matters is that as a speaker, Maarten is the guy who manages to break down complex topics into simple, digestible principles. He brings refreshing insights on the latest technological trends, combines them with real-life stories, and adds a dash of creativity to create engaging, eye-opening talks that only Maarten can deliver.
At least, that's what he thinks. He’s probably wrong. Biased data, you know.
Very interesting overall. It was sometimes difficult for me but Maarten explained it very well and I liked it!
Very clear to me! A good first step to start with machine learning and data analytics.
