Artificial Intelligence will without any doubt change the way we will do business in future. As a matter of fact, it is already changing many businesses that we are involved in today. But what is needed to make Artificial Intelligence a valuable part of the way we do business ourselves? Many experts believe that successful Artificial Intelligence applications hinge on the so-called b-smact technologies (Blockchain, Social media, Mobile use, Analytics, Cloud and Things-on-the-internet or better known as IoT). The fueling component of those technologies is Big Data. This insight will require a whole new set of business skills. Understanding and working with new technologies for big data collection, analysis and prediction will not create only huge opportunities for business, but also ethical, legal, privacy and technical issues concerning every part of the organization. It will influence customer relationships, redefines how firms develop new products and services, changes how operations are organized and managed, improves demand and supply networks, and provides the basis for new business models. It will demand a data-driven focus of everyone involved
