Check out the new Spatial App Development Summit on October 18th!

Having gathered more than 1,500 attendees at both of our events in London & New York last year, we're excited to announce our 2023 edition.

We’ll bring together Data Science, Advanced Analytics & Geospatial experts from across the globe to discuss the latest trends and innovative use cases across multiple industries. We’ll look to answer some of the most pressing location-based questions in both the private & public sectors, bringing together a mixture of business and research.

Diversity program

Having a diverse group present at #SDSC23 is a priority for us, and for that reason we are setting aside 30 tickets to ensure we attract attendees from groups who are typically underrepresented at Data Science or GIS events.
This includes but is not limited to: women, underrepresented backgrounds, people with disabilities and LGBTQ.
