The third edition of Cypher will focus on understanding the changing dynamics of data with the increasing usage of analytics.

The event, which will happen at Park Plaza in Bengaluru from September 21-23, will host data scientists, managers, senior managers, directors, academicians, and CXOs from various domains in the industry.

This year, Cypher is looking to be a bigger and better version of its previous two editions, bringing together 100 speakers, 70 talks, 15 workshops and 700 delegates from various industries across India, to learn and network on disruptive technologies such as data science, analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.

Gaurav Vohra, co-founder and CEO, Jigsaw Academy, said: “There’s a growing gap between what market needs and what individuals can offer.

“At Jigsaw Academy, we have designed the solution in collaboration with the University of Chicago, Graham School and industry partners to help Indian professionals bridge this gap.” Cypher is backed by Analytics India Magazine , country’s largest analytics and data science portal. Bhasker Gupta, founder and CEO, Analytics India Magazine, said: “Launched with the intention of creating a large format event around analytics and data science, with Cypher, we wanted to create an event that matches any similar summit in quality and scale from around the world.”

“We started Cypher with a vision of creating a platform to network and learn from thought leaders, companies and start-ups in analytics, data science and big data disciplines.

“The idea was to bring the analytics industry under one umbrella, where the professionals could showcase their work and interact with the decision-makers”, he added.

Deloitte is a platinum sponsor along with Great Learning, Manipal Global and Wipro as gold sponsors. Analytixlabs, Cognizant, Edvancer, Praxis Business School and Rinalytics are silver sponsors while Analytic Edge, Datalicious, IIDT, Insofe, Manthan, Palisade, ProEdge, Razorthink, Reva University and Team Computers are exhibit sponsors for Cypher 2017.
