You’ll learn what’s new in big data and blockchain – whether you’re an expert looking to sharpen your understanding of critical industry trends and do some networking, or you’re an enthusiastic beginner, keen to learn the basics.We'll also go over what are some opportunities that startups can tap into in this industry.Why should you care-  Big data is driving $120 billion of IT spending, according to Gartner.93% of businesses feel like they're losing money by not being able to use the information they're collecting.-  38% plan to, or are likely to implement big data projects over the next year.-  The amount of data is expected to increase by about 60% every year.We look forward to seeing you at one of our meetups!--Who we areQuadrant maps and authenticates data, making it easier to buy and sell quality, authentic data and spurring innovation and solutions for organisations.Quadrant consists of two parts, the Quadrant Platform and the Quadrant Protocol, which combined allows businesses and governments to solve their data challenges and optimise data to fit their needs.The Quadrant platform processes over 50 billion records a month, enabling organisations in every industry to purchase data which they can then use to make business and policy decisions. It is powered by a protocol that uses blockchain technology to authenticate and map data. The Quadrant Protocol “stamps” data at its source with a unique signature, so any data point that has been stamped can be traced and verified back to its origin at any time, ensuring all stamped data is provably authentic. The technology also allows for the mapping of data into usable, targeted data sets that de-clutter the field of information for professionals and organisations, allowing them to use inputs relevant to their needs and to analyse them effectively, efficiently, and with confidenceBy creating an ecosystem that enables access to data that is authentic, traceable and mapped, Quadrant solves data challenges and spurs innovation.

Why is Location Data so crucial?
For businesses, location data is the key to success. In the desert there is a saying: water is life. For many enterprise businesses, the saying should be that data is life. Data is essential to helping organisations identify the habits, needs, and wants of their customers and potential customers. A company without data is like someone lost in the desert with no route to the nearest oasis. This reality is borne out by experience.
The aggregate of all of the tiny pieces of information generated each time a person does something with a mobile device – their data – is extremely useful in the aggregate. Every time you buy a latte with the Starbucks app, or tap your phone to pay for a ride on the Metro, or ask Google where the nearest ramen shop is, your phone generates data. Individually, these datapoints are meaningless. But taken as a whole – comprising the mundane activities of millions of people on an ongoing basis – they are a map of the desert.
 
Good Data = Good Decisions?
Reliable, targeted location data analysis offers a brighter, more comfortable future for people everywhere. It allows businesses – as well as governments and other organisations – to direct their resources where they are most useful and meaningful. This is a benefit for consumers, and it will be increasingly essential for businesses.
