Each year, Mississippi State’s National Strategic Planning and Analysis Center (NSPARC) looks forward to connecting with academic practitioners, data scientists, researchers, industry experts, and lawmakers at its annual Data Summit in September. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and to ensure the safety of attendees, staff and guest speakers, NSPARC has made the decision to cancel Data Summit 2020, which was slated to be held Sept. 24-25.

NSPARC is exploring options to provide a virtual experience in early 2021 that will serve as a precursor to Data Summit 2021. For more information on Data Summit as it becomes available, visit datasummit.info. To learn more about NSPARC, visit nsparc.msstate.edu.
