From bits to bytes to Big Data, Jim examines the raw material, explains its challenges, outlines its future. He offers specific advice about collecting, cleaning, combining and crafting data into insights that even an executive can understand.

Moderator: Peter O`Neill, Founder & Lead Consultant, L3 AnalyticsSpeaker: Alan Boydell, Director, Data Insights & Analytics, fifty-five
BigQuery is the Google data warehouse allowing you to analyse terabytes (that’s a lot) of data in seconds. Using the integration with Google Analytics Premium as an example, where it is now possible to access raw visitor, session and hit level data, Alan will look at the new possibilities this has opened up for marketers, developers and data scientists. He will explore the nitty gritty details of specific business use cases that are best served by this type of integration between your click stream tool and a data warehousing tool.
eMetrics Tactics Zombies, Catnip and Icebergs – Finding the Returning Products that Kill Profit and Customer Lifetime Value
Moderator: Jim Sterne, Founder, eMetricsSpeaker: Vicky Brock, CEO & Founder, Clear Returns Nichola Toner, Website & Customer Services Controller, M&Co
A sales isn’t really made and the conversion isn’t in the bag until the online shopper decides to keep it, days later in the privacy of their home. If the product isn’t up to expectations, or the shopper can’t figure out how to switch it on, its coming right back, ramping up operational cost and decreasing the chances of that customer buying again. Vicky talks about how Clear Return’s award-winning predictive analysis spots what products are driving returns and why, so action can be taken fast.

Moderator: Peter O`Neill, Founder & Lead Consultant, L3 AnalyticsSpeaker: Mark Johnson, Digital Analytics Enthusiast, Avios
The perceived value of Digital Analytics in many companies doesn’t extend beyond colourful dashboards. The responsibility for changing this perception lies with the digital insight team.

eMetrics Tactics Five Statistical Concepts Every Digital Analyst Should Know
Moderator: Jim Sterne, Founder, eMetrics Speaker: Karandeep Singh, Head of Analytics & Insights, Digital Annexe
An incorrect statistical approach to data or its analysis is as much use as an inflatable dartboard. In this session we discuss the five most critical building blocks that need consideration to avoid the misrepresentation of data. We will also deconstruct each concept using real life examples and statistical techniques to go from ‘good’ to ‘better’ and from ‘better’ to ‘best’ enabling you to get the most out of your underlying data set which can help in optimising overall customer behaviour.
12:40 pm Lunch Break
1:40 pm Keynote: Transforming the Culture of the UK Government
Speaker: Jim Williams, Product Analyst at Cabinet Office, Goverment Digital Service
While everyone faces challenges in getting their organisation to transition to the use of analytics in decision making, these challenges are magnified when that organisation is the UK Government. But it was a challenge undertaken by Jim Williams and the Government Digital Services Team as they work to move all government services online. Jim will take you through some of the key barriers they faced and how each were overcome – or the work that is ongoing to knock them down.
2:40 pm Formal Roundtable Discussion: First, Admit You Have a Problem
When the eMetrics Summit started in 2002, the marketing optimization world was full of unknown unknowns. So we sat together and discussed and listed out our common problems. More than a decade later, it’s time to revisit. You’ll be sitting with like-minded professionals to share your troubles and the solutions to troubles you’ve bested.

eMetrics Strategy The Relationship Between Offline User Experience and Digital Conversion Rate
Moderator: Peter O`Neill, Founder & Lead Consultant, L3 Analytics Speaker: Sibel Akcekaya, Founder and Principal Consultant, NobHill Digital Consulting LLC
Acquiring new visitors and converting them digitally are very crucial. But what happens after we converted them? You worked so hard to acquire these customers but a bad customer experience in other dealings with the company could lose them. Monitoring customer’s future behavior is a key to unlock many mysteries that affects conversion and retention rates significantly. In this session Sibel will show you how to measure these effects on your conversion rates, flagging them up so actions that can be taken. Your executives would love these insights!!
eMetrics Tactics Social Media Optimization in Retail Banking
Moderator: Jim Sterne, Founder, eMetrics Speaker: Javier Godoy, Data Strategist & Managing Partner, Mind Your Group

4:45 pm Keynote: Measuring the Unmeasurable: Econometrics Magic in Advertising
Speaker: Dr. Wing Yee Lee, EMEA Business Analytics Team Manager, Adobe
In an increasingly multiscreen world it is increasingly difficult to understand individual consumer behavior across devices and offline. Without direct measurements, it appears to be impossible to measure these effects. Enter econometric methods which solve many of these problems elegantly. Drawing on the work of a handful of Nobel laureates, Wing presents several applications of econometric methods in advertising, from measuring online-offline interaction and attribution to media mix modeling. Apart from presenting a general framework, Wing provides the proof with results of several case studies.

Building Momentum in Online Testing

Getting an online optimisation program up and running is hard enough, but once
it’s up and running, how do you keep it running, and how do you ensure it doesn’t stop when your tests aren’t winning? This presentation looks at the steps you can take to grow your testing program and ensure testing remains a key part of your online strategy.

eMetrics Strategy From Über Creepy to Over Compliance: Managing your Analytics Assets
Moderator: Jim Sterne, Founder, eMetrics Speaker: Aurelie Pols, Pan-European Privacy Specialist, Mind Your Privacy
The Privacy discussions started with Do Not Track some years ago, before we all went through the nightmarish EU Cookie Directive and some kind of consent mechanism. From Cookie cliff, losing over 90% of tracking, to implicit consent; from asking for forgiveness instead of permission, the analytics community is slow-ly but surely getting used to Privacy, Security and Compliance discussions.
But what does this really imply? Your role as a company collecting, processing and retargeting data is one thing. The tools you use, their Terms and Conditions and the surrounding processes yet another.
Follow this session if you make sure that within this chain of data responsibility you are not the weak link.
eMetrics Tactics Customer Lifecycle Analytics
Moderator: Peter O`Neill, Founder & Lead Consultant, L3 Analytics Speaker: Antoine Frange, Head of Marketing Insights, Zipcar

Barclays Bank: Transitioning from Reaction to Proactive
Speaker: Benjamin Mercier, Senior Digital Analytics Manager, Barclays UK
The real value of analytics isn’t about reporting, it’s all about proactively pointing out bottle necks, opportunities to the business and drive the decision making on strategy. Most analytics managers are very aware of that. Unfortunately they are so stuck with on demand and BAU requests that being proactive can be an impossible dream. Within just 6 months, Benjamin and his team changed the value of digital analytics for Barclays UK, let him share this experience with you.
