The Data Visualization Community Unites for the Next #DataGenius Challenge
Formerly known as the DataGeek Challenge, DataGenius is the community for people around the world to use creativity, data, and visualization to solve complex problems with simple SAP solutions. It is a movement of the data community to discover and tell the most compelling stories using data in the name of solving real-world problems. New data visualization technologies allow us to uncover value from our data and discover new meaning. The DataGenius Challenge urges us to demonstrate how we can turn data into meaningful insight that allows us to take action that will ultimately lead to change, however big or small. Join the movement today at www.sap.com/DataGenius
