A Smarter Devon Unconference 2 | A Smarter Devon

In June 2018 we held our second open-space event, where we invited everyone who uses data and intelligence to improve services in Devon to come together, share ideas and get inspired.

You can read David’s reflections on the event (opens in a new tab), and see some feedback and photos below.
