When I outlined these 10 Data Analytics Trends To Watch in 2020 - nobody could have imagined that a global pandemic would virtually shut down the world and disrupt companies’ technology initiatives. Technology by its nature is meant to disrupt. It challenges us to rethink what is possible. I did not envision an economic collapse, a radical shift to a remote workforce, or the loss of health and hobbies. This is uncharted territory for us all. Breathe. Through all of this, the one thing that is clear, is that data analytics and business insights matter more today than ever before. What does the COVID-19 pandemic mean for the data analytics industry and all the professionals in this vertical? In light of these recent events, I want to revisit the 10 data analytic trends I wrote about at the start of the New Year and examine what impact the “new normal” will have on the data analytics industry as a whole.
