To find out more, nominate a city, host an event or sponsor the festival visit www.bigdataweek.comFounded in 2011 by Stewart Townsend as way to unite the global data communities through series of events and meetups. It has quickly become the ‘go to brand’ for a global perspective on Big Data and emerging trends. Big Data week is hosted across a number of major city hubs reaching across Europe, Americas, Australasia and Asia Pacific.

“I created Big Data Week to unite the global big data community, as a co-organiser of London based Big Data events I felt there was a gap between meetups across not just London but the globe, communities tended to stay in one part of the Big Data landscape and thus the idea was born to bring together all the communities and networks across a week of events”
Stewart Townsend, Founder Big Data Week

“The role of data in business, health, science, technology, retail and entertainment will be a key differentiator for the organisations that succeed in the next digital wave. Big Data Week educates and creates new opportunities for organisations of all shapes and sizes in understanding what big data can do for them now and in the future. media140 are very excited to be able to participate in this global initiative”
Andrew Gregson, Founder media140 Worldwide
