Dear West Hub Community,

While you are getting excited about the Save the Date for the first-ever All Hubs Summit 2020 (more details coming soon), please join us for TWO short (10-15 minute) surveys!

Thanks to those who have shared their ideas and perspectives thus far; your input and feedback are critical to shaping these activities, programs, and initiatives.

NSF Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) Survey: Open through February 7, 2020

The National Science Foundation is exploring the need for an entity to coordinate community activities and resources across the Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) funded projects. The aim of this new entity is to enhance outcomes across the diverse and interrelated HDR funded activity. Based upon your existing or previous engagement in data science research with NSF, we are asking for your professional opinion.

Please consider retweeting and sharing the link for this quick turnaround survey: http://bit.ly/HDR_Stakeholders

West Hub Stakeholder Input Survey: Open through March 2020

The first 500 participants will be entered to receive special West Hub swag packages (yes, this includes the West Hub jacket you may have seen on our leadership team)! As announced in 2019, each of the four hubs will receive $4 million over four years in our second phase, for a total investment of $16 million. This is double the budget for the first round of Big Data Hubs awards made in 2015. Be sure to catch up on the latest with these summary articles and links.  

You will be provided with an overview of the results, through the West Hub. No individual response will be reported -- only aggregate results. These results will help guide the West Hub in catalyzing and scaling data science for societal needs.  

Please consider retweeting and sharing the link for our Phase 2 Stakeholder Input Survey:  http://bit.ly/WestHubPhase2Survey


Thanks in advance for sharing this and including additional stakeholders! 

- Meredith, on behalf of the West Hub Leadership Team
