Diversity and Inclusion Statement
We are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the world of data and tech.
Our greatest asset is the diverse community of attendees, speakers, and organizers. Different experiences, backgrounds, and skills enrich our culture and the success of our event.
We celebrate and encourage differences in age, color, disability, ethnicity, family status, gender identity, language, national origin, ability, political views, race, religion, sexual orientation, socio-economic status, veteran status, and all other unique traits.
Our diversity and inclusion efforts cover all aspects of our event, including programming, speaker selection, training, networking, and social activities. We commit to:
- Forming diverse planning committees.
- Ensuring inclusive event discussions.
- Avoiding single-gender panels.
- Creating gender-balanced, ethnically, and geographically diverse speaker lists.
- Making events accessible with subtitles, sign language interpreters, and pre-reading materials.
- Conducting voluntary surveys to track diversity and inclusion.
All participants must treat others with dignity and respect. Inappropriate conduct will not be tolerated, and actions will be taken against any form of discrimination. If you experience or witness discrimination, please contact an event organizer or staff member.
