Data Science Week (DSW) brings together a community of data scientists, technologists, visualisers, educators and more to raise awareness around data science, increase the uptake of data science training, projects and activity, and discuss trending topics and ideas.

To kick off DSW2022 we are hosting a fantastic launch event where we'll be exploring the state of Data Science in WA and its future impacts on research, industry and education.
