Gartner - The technological research and consulting firm states that:

"By 2023, more than a third of organisations will be using Decision Intelligence to help make decisions".

In this article, we explore what is Decision Intelligence, the typical applications of Decision Intelligence, and examples of the benefits seen by businesses from adopting the technology.
