The Global Goals Lab DATA SUMMIT will take place 25-26 November 2015, Stockholm. The first data summit following the launch of the Sustainable Development Goals in September will provide the space to rethink data for development and global sustainability. The summit aims to link personal health to the health of cities and the health of the planet. We will connect people working with data, sensor technology and development for two days of deep dialogue, project initiation and innovation.

The end goal is to launch the GLOBAL GOALS LAB, an innovation space around data for the UN Global Goals.
