THE CROWD IS CREATING INFORMATION. AND YOU CAN’T ESCAPE.

• Every second we create new data. For example, we perform 40,000 search queries every second

(on Google alone), which makes it 3.5 mn searches per day and 1.2 trillion searches per year.

• Facebook users send on average 31.25 million messages and view 2.77 million videos every minute. Every minute up to 300 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube alone.

• Within five years there will be over 50 billion smart connected devices in the world, all developed to collect, analyze and share data.

• At the moment less than 0.5% of all data is ever analysed and used, just imagine the potential here.
