To celebrate a decade of community, we’re doubling the fun! This year, School of Data will be a two day event:
Day 1: School of Data
The classic conference day with an amazing lineup of open data presentations, workshops, lightning talks, and panels.
Day 2: UnSchool of Data
For the first time ever, we’re hosting UnSchool of Data, an unconference where you set the agenda. Bring an idea, propose a session, and help shape the day’s agenda.
