Like SLOW but different: Invitation to the EconData Workshop @IAB in Nuremberg
Dear SLOW Community,
You know and love the SLO-Workshop, the open format that nurtures discussion and ideas to address survey challenges. However, survey data is not the only data out there. Maybe you find yourselves tackling other data challenges that do not quite fit into SLOW. In that case, you may be interested the workshop below.
Together with BERD@NFDI and Digital Research Academy (DRA), we organize a workshop that fosters collaboration and tackles any data question you have not yet had the chance to ask or idea that you have not had a chance to try out. In February 2026, we like to invite you to join us at the IAB to share experiences, questions, challenges and wisdom across institutions.

Like SLOW but a little different: No long slides, no panels – just people who care about data, shaping the program together. You will help set the agenda with topics from open data and reproducibility to machine learning ethics, economic modeling, data governance, or visualization techniques – and join the sessions that inspire you most.
It is spontaneous, hands-on, and participant-driven. No prerequisites, no need to have ever heard of BERD@NFDI or DRA to take part. If you are interested, just sign up, bring your laptop, and join us in Nuremberg at IAB (Regensburger Straße 100).
February 26 (Half Day, 13.00 – 17.00): Jump right in with your most pressing questions, explore tools and approaches, and collaborate with peers.
February 27 (Full Day, 09.00 – 17.00): Continue your projects, refine your ideas, and wrap up with concrete outcomes – from best practice guides to reusable code snippets.
For questions, please contact Georg-Christoph Haas at Georg-Christoph.Haas@iab.de.
We look forward to meeting you!
Best regards,
Georg-Christoph Haas
