ABOUT US

As our world moves toward an increasingly data-driven reality, we believe it is critical that we service this data ecosystem as a whole. In the field, data science and data engineering go hand-in-hand. Data engineering lays the foundational infrastructure for data science while data science generates innovation that makes the whole thing worthwhile. To better reflect this, we started the International Data Engineering and Science Association or IDEAS for short.

Our Mission

We bridge the gap between academia and the industry. We build a data engineering and science hub by providing robust resources and connecting real-world expertise together from business leaders, professionals, and promising students. Our vision is to foster the data engineering and data science ecosystems and broaden the adoption of their underlying technologies, thus accelerating the innovations data can bring to society. We empower and nurture community growth by offering online resources, conferences, latest industry trends and data related job opportunities.
