Agenda

About Data Days

Our Project A Data Days are a two-day conference that leverages the Project A data community for knowledge exchange. No sales talk. No secrecy. No hero stories. Just insightful presentations and panels, honest fuck-ups, networking, and a lot of fun. It’s that simple! You’ll have the opportunity to participate in our main track and also gain even more in-depth knowledge via our Data Engineering & Science and Analytics tracks.

What to expect

01

Beyond the Obvious

It’s not about finding the low-hanging fruits. It’s about diving deep and reflecting on what we’ve learned. We tell untold stories and pose unasked questions. We want to challenge some deeply-held beliefs while staying pragmatic.

What to expect

01

Intense knowledge sharing

We'll maximise knowledge exchange within the Analytics and Data teams of the Project A portfolio companies. A lot of us have to solve very similar data-related problems. Got insights? Great, feel free to share! We don’t bet on big names but on real experience from past projects.

02

Great networking opportunities

We'll provide a platform to network with other data professionals. There are plenty of things we can learn from each other and collaborate — keynote sessions and panel discussions, getting inspired to approach ambitious projects, and challenging our own ways of thinking about data.

03

Exclusive event

We'll talk openly in front of Project A family companies and our presentations don’t have to be as polished as at a public conference. You'll get insights from real experts. No product placements, no ads, no bullshit.
