Have you missed these fun data science conferences?
Most, if not all, industries will have major conferences for members to attend. They consist of educational workshops, networking opportunities, and industry leader keynotes for attendees to absorb. Did I mention conferences are fun? For those of you who have attended a conference in the past, you know meeting new people and learning in a new environment is often invigorating.
Especially for a data enthusiast.
Data science may be a relatively new industry, but conferences have still managed to bring together industry leaders around the world. from North America to Asia, you can find a data science conference at almost any time of the year. Like a data science BootCamp, the hardest part is narrowing down which one(s) to attend.
