SFScon20 Event Highlights

On Friday, 13th November and Saturday, 14th November 2020, Knowage Labs joined the South Tyrol Free Software Conference, one of Europe’s most established annual conferences on Free Software.

It was the very first virtual edition of SFScon, which, despite the rather “special” conditions, reached more than 1,000 individual viewers on the first day alone! 95 speakers, 80 talks and 4 parallel tracks on Friday afternoon – so, lots of content.

Knowage Labs have be deeply involved above all in the first day of the event, November 13th:

In TRACK 1 Data Analytics, Marco Balestri (Knowage developer) held the speech “Boost dataviz with Python“. Here the video recording and the presentation.

In the OW2 track, Davide Vernassa (Knowage front-end developer) held the speech “Customize your data visualizations with KNOWAGE“. Here the video recording and the presentation.

Knowage joined the Free Software Conference together with other OW2 Community projects, with the aim to promote this association and the capabilities of its projects.

In addition to the speeches, Knowage Labs hosted a virtual room to meet participants interested in business intelligence and give them the chance to ask more questions to the speakers.

During the Networking Meetings, Noemi Maglio, Knowage business developer, stayed at disposal of SFSco20 participants to support them discovering Knowage professional services and how Knowage can help them growing their business.
