This is our second year doing Data Driven, and if you joined us last year, thank you! We"ve worked incredibly hard to make sure this year is bigger and better.

Some notable additions:

  • Now on Friday: TGIF

  • New Location: This year"s event will take place at Google Canada"s downtown headquarters, conveniently located at 111 Richmond St W.

  • Introducing Data Driven Tuneups: Stuck on a spreadsheet? Python script giving you trouble? Have an idea you just can"t seem to get off the ground? Throughout the day, top data-driven journalists will be on hand for 10-minute private consultations. Time slots are limited, so make sure to arrive early to secure your booking.

  • Introducing Breakout Sessions: We love learning about data, but it"s time to get hands-on. The last half of our conference will transition from salon-style conversation to hands-on breakout sessions focused around specific topics like finding data-driven jobs, how to begin coding, and more!
