Graphs4Good – Building a Better World with Connected Data – Asia Pacific

Thursday, May 26 | 9:00 a.m. IST | 11:30 a.m. SGT/CST/HKT | 12:30 p.m. JST | 1:30 p.m. AEST

Graphs are very good at detecting hidden patterns within reams of unstructured data. Our vision is to help the world make sense of data. But Neo4j’s Graphs4Good program was created to highlight graph-powered projects that are helping to solve some of society’s most pressing problems – climate change, a cure for cancer, large-scale criminal tax evasion, COVID-19 research and contact tracing, and to take down Russian Twitter trolls, to name a few.

With our Graphs4Good program, we aspire to continue connecting and enabling those who work with data for the good of humanity so their humanitarian efforts are most effective.

For this month’s Connections event, we’ve curated some of the most powerful stories and examples of how graphistas across the globe are using graph technology to build a better world. Join us for this half-day virtual event to learn more about how Graphs4Good are used in everything from investigative journalism to medical research, space junk monitoring, and beyond.

Sign up to get more info on Neo4j presentation topics and speakers, as it becomes available. If you’re unable to attend the entire event, that’s okay! Everyone who registers will get access to all of the sessions on-demand after the event – so be sure to register today!
