# SMART DATA INNOVATION · BV European Marketing Podcast · S03 E02

[Blogmaster](https://blog.bvirtual.com/author/blogmaster) [Wednesday, April 21, 2021](https://blog.bvirtual.com/alexa-european-marketing-flash-briefing-s03-e02-smart-data-innovation-tips) [0 Comments](https://blog.bvirtual.com/alexa-european-marketing-flash-briefing-s03-e02-smart-data-innovation-tips?hsLang=en-gb#comments-listing)

![S03 E02](https://blog.bvirtual.com/hs-fs/hubfs/S03%20E02.jpg?width=700&name=S03%20E02.jpg)Cases of European innovation using Smart Data are the focus of the February briefing

As Leslie observes this month,  
*"Data is prized as never before by visionary companies.*  
*At the same time – due to the value of this new 'oil'  
of the Digital Economy* *– there is a strong pushback by consumers  
on the use of their personal data."*

Anna and Carrie offer surprising Smart Data Tips  
that improve results for E-Mail Marketing, Social Media  
and Inbound Marketing.

**And George surprises everyone with the case  
 of the "Coughing Billboard"!**

**Listen right here, and scroll** **down to consult  
additional resources   
in this episode's Programme Notes.**

*Spain's Paradores hotels are using  
AI for predictive modeling.

Whilst McDonald's & brands in Sweden  
revolutionise Outdoor Advertising with   
DOOH, linking Smart Data with their  
Digital Signage networks*
