For the second year in a row, Docentric contributed to the DATA_Fair conference, held in Ljubljana on February 12, 2026.

DATA_Fair brings together engineers, data scientists, AI specialists, and tech leaders to share practical experience and discuss developments in data and AI. The conference also makes a deliberate effort to give more women a place on stage.

Why Women’s Visibility in Tech Matters

Women are already building products, solving complex technical problems, and leading technology companies. But they are still less visible on conference stages and in conversations about technical expertise and leadership.

DATA_Fair is trying to change that by putting more women on stage and giving them space to talk about their work and expertise.

Seeing women in these roles matters. It challenges old assumptions about who a technical expert or tech leader looks like. And for women earlier in their careers, it provides more examples of where their own careers can take them.

That is one of the reasons Docentric supports DATA_Fair.
