Walter O'Brien of Scorpion Computer Services Featured Speaker at RAND
 
 

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB) MAY 20, 2015

Walter O'Brien, Founder of Scorpion Computer Services, spoke at the RAND headquarters in Santa Monica for the RANDNext Event on Feb. 18, 2015, where he explained how his company applies high IQ, computer science and artificial intelligence to mitigate risk and solve global problems. The 70 year-old RAND Corporation is a research organization that develops solutions to public policy challenges to help make communities throughout the world safer and more secure, healthier and more prosperous. RANDNext events gather an elite group of early-to mid-career professionals for cross-industry networking and policy discussions with world-renowned experts.

Established in 1948, RAND is a nonprofit global policy think tank originally formed by Douglas Aircraft Company to provide research and analysis for the United States Armed Forces. General Henry H. Arnold, commander of the United States Army Air Forces, established Project RAND with the objective of looking into long-range planning of future weapons.

RAND Members enjoy exclusive opportunities to interact with RAND experts, key policy influencers, and other young professionals through thought-provoking events on ideas that are shaping our world. From National Security Analysts to Public Health Care Policy Researchers, over 300 RAND experts are available to speak to the media on topics relevant to the current public policy debate.

"The methodologies and best practices used to develop software can be applied successfully to any challenge in life," said Walter O'Brien at RANDNext during his speech which also introduced the concept of using the brain power of a service like Conciergeup.com to outsource complex problems upwards instead of simple problems downwards.
