Data for public goods
Chile has a unique location in the southern hemisphere with more than 6,000 km of coastline and mainland stretching through 38 ° latitude, making it the place for Natural Laboratories, which include a wide range of climates, ecosystems and natural disasters

Chile as an emerging economy, Chile constantly seeks mechanisms to evolve from having its economy based on the extraction of raw materials to having it based on the creation of knowledge
Talent Development
Education

Training

Employment opportunities
Within the DO's objectives it is considered to generate instances of education, talent development, algorithm training and new technologies.

The focus is broad and transversal, from the generation of interest in the field of Data Science at the elementary and middle school, undergraduate and postgraduate levels, in addition to motivating professional work in the data area through opportunities, challenges and networking of national and international talents.
