The USA Edition follows in the footsteps of the UK Edition, launched in 2015, which has spawned eight editions and 800 data and analytics profiles. Each profile details the history and accomplishments of data and analytics experts across all fields and sectors.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe received online nominations for the USA Edition from our 8,000 plus community,\u201d said David Reed, knowledge and strategy director at DataIQ. \u201cFollowing these nominations, a rigorous research project and insightful network recommendations left us with 439 names to consider for the top 100.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
To select the shortlist, DataIQ judges split the nominees into separate categories: data titans, data enablers and influencers. From this, 75 data titans, 20 data enablers and five influencers would be selected to form the top 100.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
In addition to these categories, nominees must also reflect the DataIQ Way and promote the fundamental qualities of vision, business strategy, value creation, culture and data foundations to make it to the final selection.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe nominees that were shown to embody these ideals and have a track record of exceptional data and analytics empowerment are those that have been listed in the DataIQ 100 USA Edition,\u201d said Reed. \u201cIt is time that the data prowess of the USA is celebrated and promoted as businesses are rapidly evolving to hold data led executive decision-making processes, and without the data teams this evolution would not be possible.\u201d<\/p>\n
