Data Solutions on the Menu at Capitol Factory House 2025
Austin, TX – Get ready, Austin! On March 10, 2025, the Capitol Factory House will serve up a smorgasbord of data-driven insights, like a buffet for your brain! The Data Foundation is teaming up with data.world and Capital Factory to present “Amplifying Health Innovation: Data Solutions for Nutrition & Wellbeing.” It’s an event as special as finding extra fries at the bottom of the bag—sticky, warm, and oh-so-deliciously unexpected!
A Star-Studded Health Fair of Knowledge
From 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. CT, attendees will feast on a half-day of enlightening discussions as leading experts whirl through the complex landscape of data innovations in health and nutrition. This isn’t just any gathering; it’s an opportunity to bridge the divide between health-loving entrepreneurs and the policy whizzes who write the rules—like the peanut butter and jelly of innovation and regulation!
Dr. Nick Hart, the President and CEO of the Data Foundation, expressed the urgency of the event, stating, “At a time when Americans face unprecedented health and nutrition challenges, we need innovative, data-driven approaches that connect technology with policy solutions.” Sounds like a recipe for success, doesn’t it? Who knew data could be such a powerhouse ingredient!
