A Pillar of the Data/AI Ecosystem

With 20,000+ people in the group, and over 110 monthly events since its inception, Data Driven NYC has become the largest community of its kind in the United States.

Over the years, we have featured hundreds of the very best speakers in our industry.

In addition, Data Driven NYC has acted as a marketplace for ideas, talent and opportunities. Presenting companies have met their next customer and top hire at the event. Attendees have connected with their next professional opportunity. Founders have met for the first time during networking, and new startups were born.

Data Driven NYC gathers monthly, in person, at top venues around Manhattan. Events typically have 150-300 attendees.

A Vibrant Community

The heart of Data Driven NYC is an incredible group of people who attend events to learn, be inspired and connect with others.

The Data Driven NYC community is relentlessly curious and engaged. It is a broad mix of people from the startup ecosystem (including many founders), as well as Global 2000-type large enterprises, VC funds, Wall Street firms, universities, etc.

The group is about equally technical (developers, engineers, data scientists) and non-technical (product, sales, business, or just curious).

By design, the community is open to everyone and all events are free. Everyone is welcome!
