The Brussels Data Science community is supported by the European Data Innovation Hub.
Our mission is to educate, inspire and empower scholars and professionals to apply data sciences to address humanity’s grand challenges.
What we do
mind the gap
We are the fastest growing community of data scientists in Europe.
We love doing Data4Good.
We promote the value of analytics and organise events, hands-on sessions and trainings to close the gap between academics and business.

Open Data per il riuso della PSI: l'Europa spinge sull'economia del futuroMatteo Brunati
Presentazione portata all'evento "Hack4Med and roadmap to Veneto Open Data" per dare un po' di visione sulla questione europea riguardo alla PSI, e raccontare anche qualche contesto di riuso in chiave business. Il lato da incentivare e da comunicare maggiormente.
Description of the workshop:
In this workshop we will bring together ideas and best practice examples of open data projects with an impact for the society, government or business. Open data is a global trend but differences exist in its implementation and use. Accordingly, we are going to compare how open data is made available in South East Asia and in Germany and try to answer the following questions together with the attendees:
What are the basic conditions in Southeast Asia and Germany to make open data available?
How is the access to open data provided in Southeast Asia and Germany?
What is the value added of open data in Southeast Asia and Germany?
Participants can share their experience according to their regional backgrounds or experience with different regions. Finally, the exchange may help us to understand why some projects are successful and others fail.

Open Southeast Asia #opensoa 2017 workshop
We’ve talked about the future of the “paperless office” for years, but what is really possible? And how much of that vision can be accomplished out-of-the-box versus expensive third-party tools and consultants? In this presentation, we’ll take a look at several common business scenarios and show you just how much you can accomplish without breaking the bank, including insights into Microsoft’s NextGen Portals roadmap – showing you different ways to make your business digitally-ready.
This presentation is part of the resources for the 2-day “Understanding Social Media for the Arts” course funded by Arts Council England, and delivered at MDDA in November 2009 and January 2010 by Adrian Slatcher.
SPSNL17 - Content publishing and communication strategies for Office 365 and ...DIWUG
For many years we have used SharePoint Publishing sites (intranet, extranet, websites), blogs, email and Yammer to communicate content to employees, partners and customers.
The past year we got many new publishing tools like Office 365 Groups, Microsoft Teams, Skype Broadcasts, Sway, Stream and the new SharePoint News Publishing hub launched May 16th.
This session will bring answers in how to use these tools for effective content publication and demonstrate how they can be used for a successful multi channel communication strategy.
Why should Government be like a double chocolate chip cookie?
Talk for DataCross, CorrelAids swiss chapter, on the future of open government data and the data ecosystem the Data Team of the Kanton of Zurich is building
Who would have thought that the Prime Minister and inventor of the internet would be interested in that spreadsheet on your computer? More than just a hot topic, recent legislative and government initiatives such as data.gov.uk and INSPIRE have made it a reality for organisations to exchange data in an open manner. But do you know what it really means, how it affects you and what you can do to easily unlock and exploit the benefits?
There’s so much data out there, stored in various ways: enterprise databases, spreadsheets, word documents, pdfs, access databases or even floating around in a text file on some obscure corporate network – it’s all data. With all this inconsistency, data can’t even be found let alone be used to the benefit of the taxpayer. Sharing data between organisations is a major challenge. And the challenge doesn’t stop at the inter-organisational level.
The benefits of true Open Data are great; Eliminating the barriers and pain of data sharing and publication means a more informed general public; Access without restriction and a standard methodology that removes the technological challenges of sharing and re-using the data. Geospatial data has to be part of Open Data because everything happens at a place, whether that be a house, post code, county or country. We often see Geospatial data as special, but the reality is it’s just data and should be Open Data where it can be linked with other information such as Finance or Logistics to provide the complete picture.

Anna Queralt, del BSC, parla de la compartició, concepte que s'afegeix a volum, varietat i velocitat. A més, presenta el producte amb què treballa el BSC ara, el DataClay, un sistema per afegir dades, reusar-les i compartir-les.

Data 2.0 - Harnessing New Data Visualization Tools CIL 2008Darlene Fichter
What happens when you combine data and Web 2.0?
Mountains of data are piling up in libraries and corporate intranets, but how do we say it visually and make data more useful? Fichter looks at new online tools that enable sharing, analysis, and data visualization to show trends, associations and new insights on your library website that quickly engage, inform, and empower your customers to create their own visualizations. Tools such as Many Eyes go beyond the data visualization and tap into the social dimension encouraging sharing, collaboration, and reuse. Fichter talks about what happens when data goes “social.” From visual dictionaries, textual analysis of works of fiction, to star size and nutritional components of Big Macs, hop on board for this fast-paced look at an amazing set of tools that are at your fingertips.
