Teradata is privileged to build meaningful partnerships with academic influencers that provide unique insights and share our passion for creating business value and helping companies make the best decisions possible. On Feb 22, UCLA’s Professor of Marketing Xavier Drèze lost his battle against cancer. As co-director of the UCLA Center for Management of Enterprise in Media, Entertainment, and Sports (MEMES), Teradata collaborated with Xavier on our first "Battle for the Living Room” roundtable held at UCLA. Managing chemo treatments, Xavier enthusiastically repeated the roundtable at our Teradata Partners Users Group Conference. Xavier’s visionary ideas, get-it-done spirit, zest for making a difference, will be missed. Xavier’s spirit will live on in future Teradata and UCLA collaborations.

It was such a pleasure and privilege to have the opportunity to work with, and get to know Xavier. We will miss you, X.
