New research from Warwick Analytics, on the use of analytics by Data Scientists in the UK, has been published by Data Informed. The research was carried out amongst 70 leading UK data scientists working across a range of commercial sectors, including finance, retail, consumer packaged goods and manufacturing.
The research shows that the number of data scientists in the UK looks to grow by around 50 percent in 2017. However, skilled resources are scarce and a key constraint is the amount of time data scientists manually spend processing data. This means that the key to unlocking the full potential of the UK data-science market is not just to train more data scientists, but to speed up a lot of the manual processes that transform and prepare data for analysis.
