16. How about Milan?
• There are a lot of opportunities and we can join forces. Many
could benefit:
• As a professional I want as much as possible to give back and
make a good use of my time
• As a non-profit I’d like to explore potential in projects before
investing in them
• As a company I’d like to get involved to help and also to identify
talents
• As a newly graduated student I’d like to learn more by getting
gin contact with professionals and working with them on real
world problems

17. Join forces on multiple channels
• I had started a meetup with the goal of identifying through a bottom up approach
ideas /interests / needs
https://www.meetup.com/Milano-Data-Science-for-Social-Good/
• Need to have some buy-in from Companies / Non profit / Local Government /
Institutions to identify set of interesting problems
• Open to suggestion on how better work together at every level
