DSC is a three-day conference with about 3000+ delegates from different industries and business functional areas in Mumbai. Our goal is to provide a platform for the data scientists, big data professionals, business analysts, cognitive computing experts, CIOs, CXOs to network and exchange ideas on best practices, innovations, data products, solutions in different industries. Theme of DSC 2017 The confluence of Analytics, Big Data, Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, IoT and Cognitive Computing. Why Data Science Congress? After talking to a lot of industry leaders from both users and tech vendors side, we realized that there is whole a lot of clutter around the Data Science, Big Data, Analytics, ML, AI, Cognitive and Deep learning. Leaders are talking a lot about it but real deployment is not going much beyond POCs. And the major reasons observed are lack of awareness; knowledge; shortage of skills and off course tech vendors and users both are not able to bring real use cases resulting in tangible measurable outcomes. We realized that there is a need to create a platform for dialogue, knowledge, best practices, innovations and uses cases sharing among the practitioners; startups doing breakthrough innovation; algorithm development researchers (including leading academics); data scientist; technology vendors; product, services and solution providers. We also invite several leaders from various industries to present at the conference to foster a cross-breeding of ideas. Important Date: 10 - 12 January 2017, Mumbai
