German Data Science Days 2023

The in­for­mation age, di­gi­taliza­tion, in­dus­try 4.0, and big data are just a few of the cur­rently prom­inent buzzwords. Data have be­com­e in­creas­ingly im­portant, and so has data sci­ence, the sci­ence of ex­tract­ing useful in­for­mation and knowledge from data. Data Sci­ence plays an im­portant role in sci­ence, in­dus­try, and busi­ness, and close co­op­era­tion be­tween all areas is neces­sary. For this, the Ger­man Data Sci­ence Days (GDSD) offer an ideal plat­form. They bring to­gether data sci­en­tists from va­ri­ous fields and create a fo­rum of users for users and of ex­perts for ex­perts.

The GDSD 2023 took place at LMU Mu­nich from 9 to 10 March 2023. In eight ses­sions on dif­ferent topics (e.g. data sci­ence in insur­ance, bank­ing and fi­nance; data sci­ence war (pre­ven­tion) and con­flict re­search; data sci­ence and data eth­ics), data sci­en­tists from in­dus­try, busi­ness, and sci­ence pre­sent­ed new de­velop­ments in the va­ri­ous fields and shared their knowledge and ex­per­tise. Dur­ing the breaks, the 300 par­tic­ipants had the op­por­tunity to in­ter­act, net­work, and ex­change in­for­mation and ide­as.

The Ger­man Data Sci­ence Days, which have taken place an­nu­ally since 2018, are or­ga­nized by the Elite Grad­uate Pro­gram “Data Sci­ence” at LMU Mu­nich in co­op­era­tion with the Ger­man Data Sci­ence So­cie­ty (GDS e.V.).
