- Only edition held in Edinburgh (Murrayfield Stadium) rather than Glasgow. Free one-day conference; organiser reports 32 sessions by 35 speakers. Speakers from the Sessionize embed on datascotland.org/speak/2023-speakers; affiliations from Sessionize taglines where they name an employer. Sponsors from the archived sponsor/home pages: TimeXtender shown first and described on the past-events page as the headline sponsor ('Our Headline sponsor alongside 6 enthusiastic exhibitors'); one further Associate & Community logo (file 'BRAL_01_Logo_Kit-Colour', company not identifiable from the archive) is omitted, so coverage is partial (organiser says 9 sponsors).
