WiDS Chemnitz 2022

19. Mai 2022

"On May 19th the regional WiDS Chemnitz event took place for the first time. It was entirely held in-person and attracted 50 data scientists, students and professionals from industry across several disciplines mostly from Germany but also other European countries. WiDS Chemnitz was a conference day full of highlights including 6 plenary talks from excellent speakers, a career panel, a poster session in which the participants were able to present their work and fantastic networking sessions. Since the event was rather small networking was super easy and the exchange went great and was very successful. The WiDS Chemnitz ambassadors Franziska Nestler and Theresa Wagner are thankful for the great feedback. Both are very satisfied with how everything worked out and took a lot from that day about how the next edition might turn out even better. They are very looking forward to future collaborations whose foundation was laid at WiDS Chemnitz. Franziska and Theresa are very grateful about the great WiDS network and all the support. 2022 was certainly not the last time WiDS Chemnitz took place."

"On May 4th and 5th the regional WiDS Chemnitz event took place for the second time. It was entirely held in-person and attracted 60 data scientists, students and professionals from industry across several disciplines. WiDS Chemnitz was a conference full of highlights including 6 plenary talks by fantastic speakers working in data science with applications in medicine, sociology, agriculture, autonomous driving, climate impact research and pricing. The plenary talks resulted in lively discussions what laid the foundation for exciting networking sessions. The WiDS Chemnitz ambassadors Franziska Nestler and Theresa Wagner are thankful for everyone who participated in the career panel and opened up about their experiences during their career. They are sure that many of the attendees will benefit from the tips and lessons learned the panelists shared with the audience. Moreover, they were excited about many poster contributors this year what gave everybody the chance to learn about their interesting research. The WiDS Chemnitz conference dinner provided the perfect opportunity to deepen the conversations. As last year, networking was super easy and the exchange went great and was very successful. Franziska and Theresa are very grateful to their colleagues at TU Chemnitz and the WiDS Community for the great support. WiDS Chemnitz 2023 was certainly a big success and they cannot wait for next year."
