## Description

Every functional area, in every industry, is on an AI Journey. The power of machine learning to dramatically improve company key performance indicators is being proven every day. But, although we feel every large organisation is on an AI journey, the path to value is unclear.

There are three key barriers to deploying AI and machine learning at scale:

 * Building data pipelines that feed both the development and deployment of machine learning models
 * Improving consistency, reducing effort and expanding the ability of data scientists to address the growing range of business problems from prediction to prescription
