Agenda:
Connecting the Dots - From Network Science to Spatial Analytics
Speaker: Milan Janosov (Founder of Geospatial Data Consulting)

Everything is connected - we have heard that many times. In my talk, I aim to outline how the science of connections - network science uncovers and makes these often invisible connections visible. I will touch base on topics like how to use graph analytics on subjects like the Game of Thrones or The Witcher, how to uncover the secret sauce of star DJs, and how the science of cities has recently unfolded, partly powered by networks - all done on a purely Python data stack.

Milan Janosov is a seasoned data scientist with a background in Physics, a PhD in Network and Data Science, and a current focus on Geospatial Data Science. Start-up co-founder, Forbes 30 under 30 entrepreneur, and public educator. Author of the #1 Amazon Best Seller Geospatial Data Science Essentials. His work has been widely featured in professional, scientific, and popular media, including Towards Data Science, Nature Social Science Research, GQ, New Scientist, New York Times, TechXplore, The Economic Times, Gamestar, and more.
