iNOVA Media Lab invites applications for the SMART Data Sprint 2021, which
will be held from 1 to 5 February in a hybrid format — online and
in-person, at NOVA University of Lisbon. The Sprint is part of the Digital
Media Winter Institute, an annual meeting focused on digital methods. The
next edition theme is about The Current State of Platformisation.



Participants from around the world will connect to attend keynote lectures,
short talks and join applied research projects. This year we will bring
even more innovative formats for practical labs, including an exclusive
track made for researchers non-familiar with digital methods. Applications
open on November 1st and close on January 18, 2021.



Main audience: doctoral students and scholars interested in developing
research from the perspective of digital methods.
