#MVPbuzzChat with Andrew Brust

For Episode 103 of the #MVPbuzzChat series, I connected with Microsoft Regional Director and Data Platform MVP, Andrew Brust (@andrewbrust),  founder and CEO of Blue Badge Insights, a Big Data and Analytics correspondent and blogger at ZDNet, and the Research Director for Big Data and Analytics for GigaOm, and is based in New York City.

In this episode, Andrew and I discuss his path into consulting and analyst roles, and the evolution of “big data” into his current focus on data analysis, artificial intelligence, and data mining. Andrew also shares some insights into the future of machine learning and cognitive services, and how Microsoft is trying to make this technology more accessible for the masses.

If you would like to follow Andrew or reach out and connect with him, you can find him on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn, and find him writing for both GigaOm and ZDNet.
