What is data? Is data science only a concept for data scientists? What role do women play in a data-driven world?

Join us for the launch of our newest chapter: She Loves Data Armenia!

This inaugural event features phenomenal female leaders from diverse backgrounds and industries sharing their career journeys and the impact of data on their lives and professions. Our panelists will explore the relevance of data; how it affects the economy and the power it has to revolutionalize our businesses and communities.
