Build & Learn: Data Science with Coffee

🚀 Build & Learn: Data Science Meetup --- With Coffee

💡 Always wanted to build a data science project but struggle to start? Or just looking for a structured, motivating space to learn and create?
This isn’t just a casual meetup—it’s a community-driven program designed to help you go from idea → working project → portfolio-ready presentation in 7 weeks.

🛠 What This Meetup Is About
✅ Learn if you’re a beginner—we’ll guide you on setup, tools & project ideas.
✅ Build something meaningful—whether it’s a passion project, a portfolio piece, or a startup idea.
✅ Join a structured challenge—every 7 weeks, we have a final showcase day where you can present your work and get feedback.
✅ Fuel it all with coffee—because great ideas (and debugging sessions) are always better with caffeine.

📌 You’ll walk away with:
🎯 A working project to add to your portfolio, GitHub, or resume
🎯 definitely some caffeine in your system ☕

💡 Not sure what to build?
Ever had a question that stuck in your head—something you wish you could map, analyze, or visualize? Now’s your chance.
🕵️ Can I map out corporate and government corruption based on their interactions?
🎶 Can I find movies based on emotions instead of genres?
💸 Are all skincare products really just the same thing in different bottles?
🗺️ Can I optimize my travels by balancing flexibility with smart planning?
🤖 Can I build an AI that rewrites history in different storytelling styles?
(More ideas at the event! You can also bring your own!)
