Do you want to present at the conference?

We want to hear about your data science work and/or research so are running a dedicated session of ‘lightening talks’. If you are interested in presenting in this session then let us know by telling us in the [SPECIAL REQUESTS] section of the registration form and we will be in touch with more information.

Once you have booked

Because there are several events on one ticket, it may not be too obvious from the receipt you receive exactly what you have purchased (it will only have one date, although the events could be over several dates). Do not despair, we will be emailing everyone closer to the time to remind you what you are booked in for. If there any specific queries, please use the email address at the bottom of the tax receipt to contact us.

Cancellation Policy

  • Unforeseen circumstances may arise where particular tutorials may have to be cancelled, replaced or changed day. With the early bird 4 bundle offer we reserve the right for this to happen to one of your tutorials with no refund. If it is 2 or more then a full refund or pro-rata refund will be available. If you purchased after the earlybird offer then a refund will be given for the marginal cost of the tutorials affected.
  • If your own circumstances change and you can no longer make it, then a full refund will be given provided we are notified by the 14th May (2 weeks before)
  • If it is later than this then we will be as accommodating as we can to give a full refund if there is a waiting list. If it is too late to re-sell the places then a 50% refund will be offered
