The iDSC is designed as a conference with a dual approach: by bringing together the latest findings in research and science, as well as innovative implementation examples in business and industry. The conference aims to reflect current scientific breakthroughs and application expertise, stimulating shared professional discourse. The iDSC realizes this approach through its Research & Science track, the Application & Use Cases track, and interactive workshops. Additionally, iDSC strives to provide a Data Science Doctoral Retreat with the IDALab, enabling young researchers to exchange ideas with senior faculty, industry experts, and fellow students. These activities are complemented by exciting keynotes and panels, fostering international exchange and discussion of current and next-gen trends in data science.
