Please join the RSS Data Science and AI section and the RSS Glasgow local group for a discussion about the future of data scientists.
 
In this session we will be joined by Scott Pirrie - Lead data scientist at Optima partners
 
After a decade since data scientists were labelled the "sexiest job of the 21st century" we want to ask you how the reality is shaping up in Scotland.

What are your hopes? What are your worries? How do you work with other parts of an organisation? Does your manager understand what you're doing?

We will be delving into the details of the day to day and the promise of the future. 
 
This will be a hybrid event so looking forward to seeing as many people as possible in person and hearing from many more.
 
Followed by drinks for those attending in person.
 
Jointly organised by RSS Data Science & AI Section and RSS Glasgow Local Group
