Directed and co-funded by the South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA)The South Yorkshire Office for Data Analytics (SYODA) project delves at some of the major issues of our day and produces fresh insight using the knowledge and analytics of the University of Sheffield.
The pilot stage has now concluded and SYODA are hosting webinars to demonstrate the findings of the pilot projects focused upon innovation, household financial fragility, digital poverty and hydrogen conversion/potential.
They have established a series of webinars to allow people to find out more, explore the potential impact across the region and to hear from the academics behind the successful pilot projects.
For more information on each of the sessions, and to register, please follow the Eventbrite links.
