Hi all,

I'm running a series of seminars next week, which will be of interest to
the group. Not exclusively spatial - also data maturity, science,
engineering, etc.. Details below. Please share with your networks.

All the best,

Work with data or manage people who do?

Want to learn about automation, improving processes and how to incorporate
open tools like Python and R? Want to learn about what open might mean for
you, whether you're looking for tools, processes, principles or just
general interest?

This June, attend a special series of lunchtime seminars. These feature an
awesome set of people talking about different aspects of working openly -
and what the benefits are!

Topics covered include: data maturity, software review, data science,
community building, data engineering and pipelines, and making a business
of open source. There's something for everyone.

Please register below and share this event with as many colleagues, friends
and family as possible.
