Since the beginning, Graph Day attendees had been asking us to hold one big event -- an annual conference -- in addition to the regional events that we held. Because Austin has always been by far the most popular edition of Graph Day - being held concurrently with Data Day Texas - we decided to launch The Global Graph Summit 2020 in Austin.
After two years of pandemic and reflection, we decided return to the original name - Graph Day.

Emil Efrim, founder of Neo4j, giving the Keynote at Graph Day / Data Day TX 2017. Check out the crowd. This is one of the reasons that Austin is the home of Graph Day.

The 2020 edition of Graph Day - aka the Global Graph Summit -was the largest industry focused vendor-neutral graph conference ever held. We have the pictures to prove it. Attendees and speakers came from over a dozen countries to Austin for a weekend of talks, panels, workshops, happy hours, and parties.

Kicking off the event was the Future of Graph Panel with Denise Gosnell, Chief Data Officer at DataStax and co-author of The Practitioner's Guide to Graph Data; Amy Hodler, Director, Graph Analytics and AI Programs at Neo4j and co-author of Graph Algorithms; Juan Sequeda, Principal Scientist at Data.World; and Josh Shinavier, Research Scientist Uber. The panel was moderated by Josh Perryman, co-author of Graph Databases in Action.

Everyone is welcome at Graph Day

Graph Day is an independently organized vendor-neutral conference -- featuring practical sessions and workshops, as well as our our well-known before and after parties. Previous speakers of our Graph Day events have included Emil Efrem, creator of Neo4j; Matthias Broecheler, Inventor of the Titan Distributed Graph Database; Marko Rodriquez, creator of the Gremlin query language and of Apache Tinkerpop fame; Jans Aasman, creator of AllegroGraph; Claudius Weinberger, creator of ArangoDB; Luca Garulli creator of OrientDB, and many others.

January is the best time to visit Austin -- when it's not 100 degrees. Check the weather forecast weekend in advance. Chances are that you won't even need a coat while in town. Adjacent to the 2nd floor conference exhibition area is a beautiful courtyard. Coffee and espresso are less than 100 steps away, and after 1pm, we open the bar.
