Our theme for Inspire Europe 2017 is Icons of Analytics. Icons of Analytics challenge the status quo approach to analytics within their organisations. With the power of self-service data analytics, these Icons are making the impossible possible – driving deeper insights to solve their organisation’s most pressing business problems.
We are ecstatic to announce icon Timandra Harkness as our guest keynote for Inspire Europe 2017 in London. In case you are unfamiliar with her, Timandra is a data expert, writer, broadcaster, and comedian. Combining unusual facts with insight and humour, she looks at how the future will affect business and society. In her book, ‘Big Data: Does Size Matter?’, she gives a history of data collection and collation, how data is changing the world, and its shortcomings from politics to health to smart cities. A presenter on BBC Radio 4, Timandra co-hosts FutureProofing with Leo Johnson, where she examines the implications of everything from language to war, and aging to food; and also serves as the resident reporter on social psychology series The Human Zoo. In addition to looking at big data, she tackles AI and robotics, and considers topics around our relationship with science and technology.
Away from the microphone, Timandra writes for some of the most prestigious publications including The Telegraph, The Guardian, The Sunday Times, Evening Standard, WIRED, Men’s Health and Significance (the journal of the Royal Statistical Society).
