David Newman provides leadership and expertise for the advancement of knowledge graph solutions at Wells Fargo. His team develops innovations that employ key knowledge graph capabilities, including ontology models, semantic and property graph databases, graph analytics, knowledge graph embeddings and graph visualization techniques.



David’s core mission is to actualize the potential of knowledge graph at Wells Fargo by creating a collaborative knowledge graph modeling community, developing enterprise standards and best practices, and creating operational pipelines for the ingestion, transformation and consumption of data using knowledge graphs.



David’s initiatives include leveraging knowledge graph technology to fulfill business use cases by creating expressive enterprise and line of business ontologies, knowledge driven data asset catalogs, linked operational knowledge graphs and applying machine learning algorithms that train on knowledge graphs.



David also chairs the Financial Industry Business Ontology (FIBO) initiative, a collaborative effort of global banks, financial regulators and vendors, under the auspices of the Enterprise Data Management Council (EDMC). Their goal is to semantically define a common language standard for finance using ontologies.



Omar Khan is presently a member of Data Management & Insights, fostering Wells Fargo efforts and building applications as Technical Lead in Knowledge Graph & Semantic Technologies. Prior to his current role, Omar built novel solutions for the business during an 11-year tenure as a consultant and full-time employee within Brokerage Technology.



While with Brokerage Technology, Omar helped to develop many key applications, and led efforts contributing to a majority of the IT portfolio in Wealth and Investment Management.



A few years ago he became known for contributing to proof of concepts in areas unexplored, but necessary for future changes in direction for various lines of businesses.



Omar successfully implemented game-changing software development ideas, and this helped form a foundation to allow me to join Innovation Group's R&D, and subsequently Data Management & Insights, specializing in Enterprise Knowledge Graph technologies. Emerging technology was and still is his specialty and passion.
