Companies like Amazon and Walmart have millions of customer transactions every hour while Facebook has over 250 Petabytes of data added daily. As increasing amounts of data are available to businesses and science, there is tremendous potential for transforming policies, research, and society at large. Data engineers are tasked with transforming this information into formats that can be used for data science projects, making skilled data scientists and data engineering critical.

Join United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI) and the Hasso Plattner Institute for a discussion on the immense opportunities and challenges presented by our increasingly data-driven society, the value that can be gained from data that is well-prepared and the dangers of data when misapplied.
