A few days back in Australia after my trip to Dubai, Amsterdam and Maastricht for the World Data Summit 2024 and business meetings!
Since then I have been asked by clients and colleagues how my trip went.
Thought I’d share some overall impressions in a this video!
TL;DW:
- The conference was awesome!
- Everyone is going through hurdles in the data space, but there is hope - simplicity and customer centricity!

Hey everyone, after landing back from my trip to Europe and to attend the World Data Summit in Amsterdam and visit partners and friends in Dubai and Maastricht I have been asked by clients and colleagues how my trip went, so I thought I would give you some insights now in this video so you know, just to share with you. So I guess first of all, the organization of the event, you know, was amazing. So Anna and the team at GIA well done. Everything was super smooth. And you know, from the planning process all the way to checking in and you know, during the presentations as well, everything was super well organized and you could see that the really on top of things. So once again, well done Anna and the team now. From the perspective of, I guess, the content and the participants, it was just really good to have been able to meet so many different people with different backgrounds, all working in the data space. You know, you had people from all over Europe, Asia. North and South America, Africa, who worked in all sorts of areas in data governance, data science, BI, you know, there were engineers, developers, ML, AI, people. And they all came from like a bunch of different industries as well, like transport, government, education, retailing, banking, ecommerce, and you know, even Google is there, the whole lot. But the most interesting thing was the exchange of information and I guess best practices. So it was super refreshing to see first hand that a lot of the problems that we see with clients here in Australia are not too dissimilar to the ones that organizations all over the world are also facing. You know, things like privacy, implementation issues like tackling governance and data quality, the role of generative AI now and in the future, all of these constraints in implementing these types of technologies that they were all discussed and, you know, problems and opportunities seemed to resonate. In the same way here in Australia too. So the key take away for me was that, you know, if you're going through some of these hurdles in your data strategy or issues in implementing a data governance program of work, for example, or if you, let's say you have databases all over the shop, you know, and you have a boss maybe chasing you to kind of like say, you know, let's implement some new. You know, shiny piece of technology that will cost a fortune, but you know it will help. So you know, 5% of the use cases, you're not alone. But the good news is that there is a way out. And what I found from the presentations and through some discussions as well is that we need to help the business to keep focusing on simplicity of execution. We need to help them continue to focus on customer centricity. A strong focus on really what matters to the customer experience and data can help a lot in that way. And in fact, those are some of the topics that I discussed myself. So I also had the opportunity to meet some partners in Dubai and Maastricht and discuss future opportunities. So hopefully we'll be announcing something new soon. OK, that was it. I hope this short message and this beautiful bushland helps you give some, you know, clarity on some of the. The takeaways from my conference trip reach out if you want to learn more about some other ideas that I picked up in that conference. And yeah, I hope to see you soon.
