About this Event
After a 2½-year break we’re back and looking forward to bringing our Greater Manchester Analysts Network (@GMAnalysts) back together. The network is designed to be a forum where any analysts, researchers, data experts or data scientists working in or with public sector organisations across Greater Manchester can come together. The network grew over eight meetups during 2018 and 2019 and has seen nearly 200 people attend at least one of those sessions. So if you’ve been before, we’d love to see you again and if you're new to this or a role across Greater Manchester, we'd love to welcome you.
Session will run between 10am and 3pm at the University of Manchester and we’ll have number of guest speakers to help bring us back together. They’ll be great content, they’ll be lunch, and they’ll be fabulous delegates ready to network, share learning and make new connections.
