We will discuss the use of data to develop cities. How and why. If we define public spaces by ownership, who owns our cities? How can we create spaces and cities based on users’ needs? What are the challenges and limitations of understanding human behavior through data?

We'll have a barbecue, nice music and a great panel of speakers.
