Data Lifeboat Meeting USA

October 2024

This is a placeholder for the moment!

As part of our Mellon Foundation project grant, we are running two events: The first is in the USA in October, and the second in London, in November, 2024. They will be small, 20-30 people, we think, and designed as working sessions to delve into the concept of Data Lifeboats being docked at intended locations, like archives or libraries.

If you are curious about attending, please register your interest, but also note that this does not guarantee entry.

More information soon!
