** UPDATE**

We've added 1 more chance for you to qualify for the Grand Prix in Sydney! We will host another session on Friday 8 February at 12:15 AEDT. Please register using the app referenced below.

 

 

 

Rally your engines Down Under because the Grand Prix is coming to Inspire on Tour: APAC to find the ultimate in Analytics Badassery. We are looking for your nominations and toughest competitors to join us at the very first Inspire APAC and show us what analytic excellence is made of. Never been to an Inspire Grand Prix?

  

Coveted Grand Prix Trophy

You, our users come together and drag and drop it like it’s hot until the problem is solved and the winner crosses the finish line. We will have three final contestants, or “drivers,” armed with the Alteryx platform and their own wit, race each other live, under the bright lights, as they work to solve a series of data challenges faster than their competitors. The goal of the evening: to prove which contestant is the master of the workflow. The audience will have the opportunity to follow along with our drivers while the race is happening, so you can see who’s in the lead in real-time.

 

If you want to hear more about the process first-hand from US Grand Prix winner Nicole Johnson (@NicoleJohnson), she joined Brian Oblinger (@BrianO) in Anaheim on the Alter Everything Podcast to discuss.
