DATA INNOVATION

Building a Big Data Research Agenda for 2017

We brought together a kaleidoscope of research organisations and public agencies to thrash out a big data research agenda for development and humanitarian issues in Indonesia.


 

SERVICE DESIGN

Urun Ide Jatim: Incubation Update

Remember that innovation challenge we shared in the May newsletter? Me neither. Anyway, this is your chance to catch up with the winners. If you like super-connectors, don't miss Pemburu Bumil Risti.


 

DATA GOVERNANCE

Imagining a Data Empowered Village

What can the public sector learn from Datavores, the namesakes of this newsletter? Delve into the thinking behind our work with Kompak and AIPD before that.


 

SMART-UP INDONESIA

Meet a Couple of the Tech Entrepreneurs Shaking-up Healthcare

PLJ has just launched a new publication on Medium to showcase the talent that's shaping Indonesia. First up, healthcare.

FRANCESCO CAUTERUCCIO

A New Way to Engage with Your Favourite Book

Using textual analysis and some sort of a graph theory to explore the genius of Gabriel García Márquez. Glorious!


 

RICHARD POPE

Power, Design and Possibilities

"Politics is about the distribution of power in society... software is politics, because software is power."


 

DATAQUEST

Python vs. R: Head-to-Head Data Analysis

Analysing a dataset side by side in Python and R, and showing what code is needed in both languages to achieve the same result. Geeky, but alluring.


 

IRIS AI

Kick-start Your Lit Review

Literature reviews just became a lot easier thanks to AI. Time to fall in love with a bot.


 

That's all, folks!
