Here are the some videos, slides and pics from the most recent NYC Data Business Meetup. The videos are unfortunately not of the greatest quality, but are good enough to watch.
Also, note to self: make sure that our audience of 200+ sits closer to the stage, so that the room doesn’t look tragically empty on camera (rookie mistake)!
In order of appearance:
1) Todd Papaioannou, CEO, Continnuuity, a stealth big data startup, based in Palo Alto, CA and backed by Andreessen Horowitz, Battery Ventures, Data Collective and a number of high profile angels. Todd was previously Chief Cloud Architect for Yahoo.
2) Neil Capel, CEO, and Daniel Krasner, Chief Data Scientist, Sailthru, a New York based startup backed by RRE, AOL Ventures, Lerer Ventures, DFJ Gotham, Thrive Capital, Metamorphic, etc. Sailthru provides fully automated, 1:1 email and onsite recommendations using a unique behavioral targeting platform. Sailthru helps brands cut through the clutter and build trust with their customers by recognizing and acting upon their individual interests. Sailthru’s technology creates individual user profiles associated with each person’s email address and online behavior. Sailthru’s algorithms gauge each individual user’s intent and match appropriate content and frequency of email communications such that every email is tailored to the unique user. That means they send as many permutations of an email as there are recipients. All simultaneously, all automated and all in real time.
3) Dennis R. Mortensen, CEO and Jeroen Janssens, Data Scientist,Visual Revenue, a New York based startup backed by Lerer Ventures, SV Angel, IA Ventures and Softbank. Visual Revenue increases front page performance for online media organizations. Their platform provides Editors with actionable, real-time recommendations on what content to place in what position right now and for how long. Visual Revenue’s predictive analytics technology allows media organizations to proactively manage the cost of exposing a piece of content on a front page, whilst maximizing the return they expect from promoting it.
