Count workshop: exploring the impact of AirBnb rentals

What will we be doing at this event?

We will explore rich data about Airbnb listings, as we work to extract the most interesting and significant insights about specific challenges. This is a relaxed, informal event for data enthusiasts who love to develop and test their analysis skills in a hackathon-like setting. By the end of the session, you'll have built up an informative data story and had the opportunity to try out new tools and techniques.

You'll have the chance to share your findings on the day and hear what others have discovered. It's a great opportunity to meet fellow data enthusiasts, learn from each other and build your network.
