About this event

South West Data's monthly social, on the second Tuesday as always, upstairs in the Watershed cafe and bar on the harbourside - turn right as you come in and look for the group around the peninsula bar. There is no programme: no talks, no slides, just people who use, build with or are learning data technologies in the South West, from 19:00 until about 22:00. The group has 1,683 members and the socials run small, usually three to six people, which is the point - you get a conversation rather than a room. Free, RSVP on Meetup. Why go: Bristol's data community is well served for talks and badly served for unstructured time, and this is the fixture that fills the gap. Best for data engineers, analysts and ML people who want to compare notes without a speaker in the way.
