We're a group of folk broadly interested in the application of data science and sustainability, discussing questions like: what data feeds can improve supply chain sustainability? what algorithms should be applied to water conservation? what challenges of scale lie behind automated energy efficiency? what can be learnt from quantitative finance, search, and other related fields? We meet on the first Thursday of every month at EcoFactor's offices in Redwood City.
