What is a meaningful metric? – Live podcast
In today’s data-abundant landscape – where everything from website clicks and customer smiles to our own heartbeats is measured – what makes a metric meaningful?
This episode was recorded live at an event a few weeks ago in San Francisco and is part of our ongoing series looking at authority; where authority is coming from today. And this episode will focus on the authority of numbers.
To explore this question we sat down with with Alon Halevy (Senior Principal Applied Scientist, Amazon Web Services (AWS)), Gabrielle Merite (information designer and founder of Figures & Figures) and Saumya Gupta (Co-Founder Build IRL Accelerator) – to discuss this special power that numbers hold in our society.
The panel was hosted by ReD’s Mikkel Krenchel and introduced by Morgan Ramsey Elliot.
Host: Mikkel Krenchel and Morgan Ramsey Elliot
