Thimphu Data Science Meetup: Reviving the Data Revolution

We are thrilled to announce the revival of the Thimphu Data Science Meetup after a hiatus of over four years. In this era of data-driven decision-making, the meetup aims to bring together professionals, enthusiasts, and relevant stakeholders to explore the dynamic landscape of data science, particularly its crucial role in three key areas: Government Technology (GovTech), engagement with stakeholders, and the empowerment of passionate data science professionals eager to drive change.

Agenda:

1. GovTech and Data Science: Unleashing the Potential

• Explore the intersection of data science and Government Technology, discussing how data-driven approaches can enhance governance, decision-making processes, and public service delivery.
• Showcase case studies and success stories from around the world where GovTech initiatives have leveraged data science for impactful outcomes.

2. Engaging Relevant Stakeholders: Building Collaborative Bridges

• Examine the role of data science in fostering collaboration between different stakeholders, including government agencies, private enterprises, and academia.
• Discuss the challenges and opportunities in creating a collaborative ecosystem that harnesses the power of data science for mutual benefit.

3. Empowering Data Science Professionals: Driving Change

• Hear from experienced professionals in the field who have made a significant impact through their work.
• Provide a platform for aspiring data scientists to network, share experiences, and learn about opportunities to contribute to the evolving data science landscape in Bhutan.

Why Now? In the four years since our last meetup, the field of data science has gained significant recognition in Bhutan. The increasing importance of data-driven decision-making across industries and sectors makes this an opportune time to rekindle our community. By exploring the intersection of data science with GovTech, engaging relevant stakeholders, and empowering professionals, we aim to contribute to the growth and advancement of data science in Bhutan.
Join us for an evening of insightful discussions, networking opportunities, and the chance to be part of a vibrant community passionate about leveraging data for positive change.
Let's embark on this data journey together and make a lasting impact on the future of data science in Bhutan!
