Analysis of business encounters using name card connections

Abstract

We provide cloud-based business card management services with the mission of "Creating a resource from everyday business encounters, and transforming the way of working". Until now, our database has about 400 million business cards data, which include not only the individual data of business persons, but also the histories of their encounters and connections in business. Using our huge data of business cards, we are trying to develop applications for supporting encounters in business such as detecting 'hub' person, recommending people who you meet your needs, measuring activity of interactions between companies, and so on.
In this session, we would like to introduce these applications and discuss how we can transform "the way of working".
