Andrew Walser, CEO at Minneapolis-based Walser Automotive Group, will talk about cracking the code on the effective use of data analytics.

Also on the bill is Allen Levenson, head of sales, marketing and brand analytics at General Motors. He will discuss what GM has learned about the challenges of deciphering data from over 75% of the connected cars on the road today. The goal is to convert that data into actionable information, creating go-to market strategies that increase profitability and improve the customer experience.
