Advances in Data Science and AI Conference 2022

Our conference returned in June 2022 as the Advances in Data Science and AI conference and was held online and in Manchester.

After physical events in 2017, 2018 and 2019 and a quickly re-designed online event in 2020, we took a break in 2021 as the pandemic uncertainty continued.
