About this event
Mississippi State's National Strategic Planning and Analysis Research Center is hosting the university's third annual Data Summit at The Mill at MSU Conference Center in Starkville. The two-day event will focus on data science and the growing emergence of “smart cities.” Discussions and activities will explore how data science can lead to new innovations and processes within the smart city concept across various industries, including agriculture, communication and media, education, energy and infrastructure, and city planning, government, health, leisure, mobility and logistics, public safety, security and data integrity. Legislators and representatives from multiple agencies, businesses and organizations, including many from outside of Mississippi, will participate in presentations, panel discussions and breakout sessions — all focused on the invaluable role of data science in the growing smart city trend.
