The unprecedented increase in the amount of data available for processing has created novel opportunities for individuals, organizations, and society. For instance, the field of cognitive analytics mimics the human brain to draw inference from unstructured data. This is creating a huge impact in fields like healthcare, finance, energy, and sports by assisting in complex analytical tasks. The ability to manage big data and glean insightful knowledge is also leading towards process-centric transformations in organizations. At a higher level, big data and analytics applications are able to drive positive impact on society in the areas of poverty mitigation, health and well-being, food safety, energy, and sustainability. Organizations are allocating greater resources to enhance and develop new innovative applications of advanced analytics. As organizations transform into data and analytics centric enterprises (e.g. health insurance companies, automobile companies), more research is needed on both the technical and organizational aspects. On one hand, research focused on the creation and application of new data science approaches like deep learning, cognitive computing can inform us about the different ways to improve decision making and outcomes. On the other hand, research on organizational issues in the analytics context can inform industry leaders on handling various organizational and technical opportunities along with various challenges associated with building and executing big data driven organization. Examples may include, data and process governance and ethical issues, leadership, and driving innovation.
