Robert Ritz, Director of LETU Mongolia
Stories from the Workshop, Episode 6
What can data science do for Mongolia? Robert Ritz moved from Texas to Ulaanbaatar and founded LETU Mongolia, where he now teaches business and data science. In this double-length episode, Robert talks to Meredydd about how he ended up in Mongolia, and some of the country’s recent history, as well as speech recognition, pollution tracking, and how the career trajectory of data scientists departs from the hype.
