In a first-of-its-kind initiative, thought leaders and leading industry practitioners from analytics and AI have come together to form the Association of Data Scientists(ADaSci) —  a nonprofit organisation for professionals working in the field of data science, analytics, big data, artificial intelligence and machine learning. ADaSci, is an industry leading association, that aims towards evangelizing and fostering a community of industry leaders, researchers, subject matter experts. It will create growth opportunities and empower the next generation of data scientists through inspiring new ideas and research.

The goal is to foster collaboration amongst data science decision makers and stakeholders and serve as a forum for promoting research, empowering data scientists and enthusiasts and addressing the current challenges of data science faced by organisations. The Association will  play a prominent role as a focal point for networking with industry professionals and help members maximize their career goals.

“Analytics and AI has the potential to be the next game-changer for the industry but the space lacks a nonprofit body or an umbrella society which can serve the need for analytics professionals in India. ADaSci aims to bring together key stakeholders and thought leaders in India and provides a forum for integrating knowledge and support the interchange of information. As a nonprofit society, it aims to be a one-stop platform for all career, research and networking related needs of Indian analytics professionals,” said Bhaskar Gupta, Founder & CEO, Analytics India Magazine
