For some of us, getting insight from data can seem like a dark art – like looking through tea leaves for prophesies that no one else can see. Not so for someone like Marta Portugal, Director of Data Science at Forth Point and guest for this episode of Talking with Tech Leaders. Chatting with host Michael Phair, Marta offers us a glimpse into the world of commercial Data Science, and into the career of an amazing Data Scientist.
We explore how she got into the field in the first place, and how she progressed from her first roles in analysis to become Director with exciting start-up Forth Point. We also talk about the power and possibilities of data, as well as some of the ethical issues the sector is wrestling with. And, as ever, we also find out a little more about Marta herself, from her favourite tech to her personal motivation. It’s a great chat and a fascinating listen.
