How does the timeless "Think Global, Act Local" adage connect sustainability, growth, innovation, AI and knowledge graphs?
"Think globally, act locally" urges people to consider the health of the entire planet and to take action in their own communities and cities. Sustainability is at the heart of what Connected Data's founders do, and this is something we firmly believe in.
Although sustainability and growth may seem to be at odds, it doesn't have to be that way. We like to think that Connected Data London 2024 exemplifies this.
After a short break, Connected Data London is back with more ambition and scale than ever. What started out as a series of London-based Meetups has turned into a truly global event.
Connected Data London 2024 is taking place in London, broadcasting globally in real-time and on-demand. It will bring together speakers and attendees from industry and research coming from places ranging from London to Japan, India, Brazil, the US and EU.
It spans 3 days with a diverse selection of programme features, topics and speakers:
3 Keynotes, 27 Presentations, 6 Lighting Talks, 20 Masterclasses, 8 Panels, 75 Speakers and 10 Stages.

From educational masterclasses to inspirational keynotes, interactive panels and unconference sessions, and a wide array of presentation topics. Covering blue chip enterprise and cutting edge startup innovation use cases - everything connected data is under one roof.
Our all-London Keynote lineup features NASA Datanaut, AI Thought Leader & Composer LJ Rich, The Knowledge Graph Guy Tony Seale and Neo4j Head of Solutions Architecture Dr. Jesús Barrasa.
Join us as we explore the evolution of Knowledge Graphs, Graph Databases, Graph Analytics, Data Science, AI and Semantic Technology. Used effectively, these technologies help govern data and manage knowledge in organizations, streamline AI adoption, unlock insights and value.
Nobody knows how to do this better than the people you'll meet at Connected Data London 2024. We've been Connecting Data, People and Ideas since 2016, having helped shape the technology and community at the forefront of modern AI.
