We aim to promote knowledge about data science methods/big data techniques and its diverse applications. In our focus is new research happening in these fields as well as its impact on society.
VDSG is maintaining a list of events. This list includes events organised by VDSG but also announcements of events organised by friendly organisations that we think might be of interest to our community.
If you would like to stay up to date, you may also subscribe to our public calendar.
