About Big Data Week
Big Data Week is one of the most unique global platforms of interconnected community events focusing on the social, political, technological and commercial impacts of Big Data. It brings together a global community of data scientists, data technologies, data visualisers and data businesses spanning six major commercial, financial, social and technological sectors.
The festival connects a number of global cities through locally hosted meetups, events, networking functions, data visualisation demo's, debates, discussion and hackathons. Events are designed to provide a platform to educate, inform and inspire - organised by people who are passionate and knowledgeable about data. We're a self organising community where anyone is able to host and create an event during the festival; making the our platform completely open and community driven.
