SUMMARY:RainForest Summit
DESCRIPTION:There’s more to building a city of innovation than just the basics. You can have talent\, capital\, and business-Efriendly policies and still fall flat as a place for innovation\, while other cities take their place as the next Silicon Valley. Why? Because you need an innovation ecosystem connecting and building on those basic ingredients. \nThe Rainforest Alberta initiative works together to improve Alberta’s innovation ecosystem\, based on the principles of The Rainforest: The Secret to Building the Next Silicon Valley. We use a scorecard from that resource to measure the quality of Edmonton’s ecosystem twice a year\, with the goal of increasing our score to 800 out of 1000 by 2020. \nanRin \nWho Should Attend?\nThe Rainforest Alberta – yeg Summit brings together a group of Edmonton innovators\, doers\, strategists\, and thought leaders together to evaluate Edmonton’s ecosystem and discuss how we can do better to create a true hub of innovation in Edmonton. \nIf you are passionate about building a stronger\, more resilient\, more innovative economy for Edmonton\, you need to attend this session. Not sure if this is a good fit for you? Read more about Rainforest Alberta – yeg! \nAssessing Innovation in Edmonton\nDuring the summit\, attendees will analyze the state of innovation in Edmonton using the results of the Rainforest Scorecard. If you want to make sure that your voice is heard\, Click here to complete the Scorecard Assessment (you don’t have to be attending to help us gauge the state of innovation in Edmonton!). \n \n\n\nThank you to our Sponsors!\nThe Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research is our Ecosystem level sponsor. Thank you so much for supporting the growth of innovation in Alberta by helping make the Summit a reality! \n \nWork Nicer is Alberta’s largest coworking community created on the foundation that no one succeeds alone. Community is more than a common space but a group of people who rally together to work through the struggles and celebrate the wins. What comes out of community is deeper connections\, cooler collaborations and higher innovation. \n \n\nAgenda\n\n8:30 Check-In\n8:50 Welcome\n9:00 Session #1 – Background and Context\n10:45 Session #2 – Rainforest Pillars\n12:30 Lunch\n13:00 Session #3 – The New Narrative\n15:00 Session #4 – Continuity\n16:30 Conclude

SUMMARY:The Nuts and Bolts of Data Science for Social Innovators and Entrepreneurs
DESCRIPTION:Data science\, machine learning\, and artificial intelligence are BIG buzzwords but what do they really mean to you and your business? \nExperts from Cybera (Alberta’s not-for-profit technology accelerator) will host an introductory session on data science for entrepreneurs and social innovators. We will help shed light on how Alberta businesses (both big and small) can navigate this complex landscape of buzzwords\, and translate it into practical knowledge to be better prepared to do more with their data. \nIn this session\, Cybera will untangle the buzzwords and jargon\, and show you how data science is impacting business through real-world examples. You will learn whether you’re ready to start using data science to improve your business and how to optimize your project’s chances for success. \nAudience:\nThis introductory session is geared toward the non-technical business audience (start-ups\, entrepreneurs\, social innovators or small-to-medium sized business) looking to understand the world of data science and are considering implementing it in their organizations.
