Resumo

O fenômeno Big Data tem atraído a atenção dos pesquisadores em marketing nos últimos anos, que buscam entender como extrair informações relevantes deste aumento exponencial de disponibilidade de dados. As prioridades de pesquisa elencadas pelo Marketing Science Institute demonstram esta preocupação ao solicitar o desenvolvimento de novas ferramentas de coleta e análise de informações. Entretanto, até o momento, não houve um debate sobre as implicações acadêmicas deste fenômeno. Neste sentido, o presente artigo tem como objetivo compreender como o Big Data pode afetar as pesquisas acadêmicas na área de marketing. Para isto, com base nos estudos em várias áreas do conhecimento, apresenta uma discussão dos possíveis conceitos e das características de volume, velocidade, variedade, veracidade, valor e outros V’s. Depois, elenca-se diversas possibilidades de estudos como as ferramentas que facilitam a visualização e a interpretação das informações. Por fim, os desafios que o fenômeno impões às pesquisas são apresentados, sobretudo com relação à pressão por publicações e a falta de tempo, às questões éticas no uso dos dados e à acessibilidade das informações.
