The economics of data, analytics, and digital transformation: This book examines how organizations can move beyond simply collecting data and instead use data, analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning to create measurable economic and business value.

The book explores the economic value of data, AI, and analytics, presents the Schmarzo Economic Digital Asset Valuation Theorem, and outlines eight laws for successful digital transformation. It also emphasizes innovation, employee empowerment, customer-focused decision-making, and the development of continuously learning organizations.
