Looking for a reason to get excited about tech this spring? Join us in March for an evening hosted by Tekna Big Data in collaboration with Women in data science and IEEE women in engineering.

Rather than just talking about the "future," we’re getting into the practical side of things, like how to build AI that’s actually ethical and how to share data securely through federated learning.

We’ve invited three fantastic experts to share what they’re working on:

• Tita Alissa Bach (DNV) together with Aleksandar Babic and Narae Park (House of Math)
• Heidi Dahl (Posten)
• Rebecca Wiborg (Vipps)
