2023 Annual Winter Symposium (Day 1)

The 2023 Annual Winter Symposium (Day 1) hosted by the Science Foundation Ireland Centre for Research Training in Foundations of Data Science.

Our Enterprise Alliance (EA) afternoon will showcase a series of EA presentations describing the training projects completed by CRT students during their 12-week EA training placements. All student speakers were nominated by their EA partner and will present for 10-minutes with 5-minute Q&A. Dave Feenan, Network Manager, Technology Ireland ICT Skillnet, will open proceedings.

EA presentations will be followed by an on-site networking event which is open only to 2022 CRT students and EA partners (16.30-18.00). Please note virtual attendance at the networking event is not possible.
