Happy Summer, SPNers! What a strange spring season it was—but it appears summer has kicked into high gear for June. In April we convened a great panel to discuss big data and its relevance to sustainable development. It was frankly stunning to learn of the progress that has been made and the brave new world of data research that is before us. If you missed it, our good friends at NYU Stern recorded it here.

Robert Kirkpatrick, our panelist from the UN Global Pulse, summed up his presentation much better than I ever could in this illuminating post: The Importance of Big Data Partnerships for Sustainable Development

Have a great summer! We will be back soon with a robust fall schedule of events.
