2 The transformative power of computing Back-office computing Client server PC World Wide Web and e-business Big data, social, mobile and cloud We are here 2

3 The transformative power of data 2,500 billion bytes of new data are created every day. 4x more digital data than all the grains of sand on earth by billion machine-tomachine data connections will be in place by % of companies are gaining a competitive advantage by using analytics. 3

4 The transformative power of data can derive value for any business 30% Reduction in heating bills 15 min Response time to requests 150% Revenue growth rate 95% Accuracy of 18+ month sales forecasts 70% Counterparty measurements changed 80% Reduction in serious accidents 80% Less time required to open an account 98.5% On-time delivery target achieved 4

5 What s at stake? Smarter supply chains. The average Australian basket of food has travelled over 70,000 kilometres from producer to consumer - equivalent to travelling around Australia two-and-a-half times. Less waste. In a world where 820 million people are undernourished, U.S. grocers and consumers throw away $48 billion worth of food in a year, according to the United Nations. Safer food. The Centres for Disease Control estimates that 76 million cases of food-borne disease each year result in 326,000 hospitalisations and 5,000 deaths. 5
