350 People Attended the 4th Annual Larry Larson Speaker Series Event in Reno
We’ve all been hearing more and more about Big Data everywhere we turn. So why should we care? How will it impact us? These were some of the questions addressed at this year’s Larry Larson Speaker Series presentation and panel discussion held on Sept. 5, 2018, in collaboration with the Floodplain Management Association's Annual Conference in Reno, Nevada.
The topic was "Big Data = Big Future + Big Challenges.” Keynote speaker, Daniel Cotter, director of the First Responders Group in the Science and Technology Directorate, U.S. Department of Homeland Security was joined by a panel of experts including Edward Clark, from the NOAA National Water Center; Samantha Medlock, from Willis Towers Watson; and David Ford, from David Ford Consulting to discuss this topic.
Thank you to our sponsors and to FMA for making this event possible.
