Why HAPPY DATA HOUR?
Bringing Silicon Valley culture to Tokyo.
When I (Takahashi) was in Silicon Valley, I regularly attended "HAPPY DATA HOUR" events in San Francisco. Data scientists, entrepreneurs, engineers, and VCs would gather to casually exchange ideas over 🍕 and 🍺.
These events went beyond mere networking — they fostered Silicon Valley's unique culture of "openly learning from and helping each other." MIDS is not just another academic department; it aims to create a new ecosystem centered on data science × international collaboration × industry-academia partnership. HAPPY DATA HOUR is where that ecosystem begins.
Let's share experience. Let's change the world together.
