In early May of this year, I was fortunate to be able to attend the annual DataEDGE conference hosted by the University of California, Berkeley School of Information. This is a conference that focuses on developments in data science with some emphasis on work going on at Berkeley and more broadly in the Bay Area, and offers a range of presentations dealing with technical developments, workforce, and broader implications of data science. There is much here that will interest various segments of the CNI community, I thnk.
The videos from the conference are now available to the public and can be found at

along with links to more information about the conference. For those interested in future meetings, DataEDGE 2016 will be held May 5-6, 2016.
Full Disclosure: I am an Adjunct Professor at the Berkeley I-school.
