What we’re about
Data literacy is the ability to use data to focus, discern, share and decide.
In a world awash with data, how do we know when we should to pay attention and when not to be distracted? Tell the difference between fact and opinion? Decide what is relevant and what is random? Data literacy doesn't just impact personal performance, it affects organisations too. Organizations that score low on data literacy can see hundreds of millions in lost value. This meetup will bring people from data lay users to data expert professionals to discuss how we can get not just data literate but achieve fluency.
