Tableau Conference Recap: A Fun-Filled Week at #Data21

Just because Tableau Conference 2021 was virtual this year, didn’t mean it was any less exciting. In fact, this year’s event was jam-packed with over 300 sessions, 800 speakers, and 100K attendees (with all the must-see episodes currently available to view on-demand). 

Speaking of on-demand, our CEO Michael Rabinowitz took part in a virtual executive roundtable where leaders examined how supply chain pressure is affecting retailers and consumer companies. The discussion also included other data-driven predictions on how retail will transform in 2022 and how companies can prepare for that shift. 

At this year’s Tableau conference we also participated in a session with Dataiku where we discussed use cases and a roadmap to leverage the automated and predictive power of machine learning and AI for intelligent insights. You can view that one on-demand, here. 

In addition to the informative sessions and inspiring keynote speakers, we had the chance to interact with some of our customers and make new friends. We partnered with the experts at MangiaDC for a fun chocolate making event where attendees learned the techniques of flavor pairing and tempering. 

We also added a little bit of magic with the help of Greg Dubin (aka “The Great Dubini”). He dazzled the eye and mystified the mind during an interactive evening of laughs and excitement for everyone who attended.

The Tableau conference wasn’t all virtual, however as we had the chance to enjoy some in-person interaction with viewing events at Pops in Chicago and Refinery Rooftop in New York. These community happy hours offered networking, food, drinks, and prizes for all those in attendance. 

We were extremely proud to be one of just 30 on-demand sponsors of this year’s Tableau conference. If you missed the chance, be sure to visit our page where there are still opportunities to WIN prizes and hear all about how we can help your business get the most out of its data.

We can’t wait to connect with everyone again next year!
