We live and work in the Information Age. But while we rely more and more on "good" information, only few information comes in the form, the amount and the quality the consumer needs. Meaningless slide decks, bad charts, unstructured documents or chatty emails overwhelm our reception.
This topic area discusses how information can be gathered, prepared and analysed, and how information transfer can be done smarter.
