How do we work

Every bi-monthly session is led by a diverse range of data leaders who want to share their voice, insights and experiences with the community.


Our guest speakers talk around their passions, their ideas and from the heart to inspire, challenge your thinking and to generate lively discussion within a safe space that operates Chatham House Rules.


With curated guest speakers, panel discussions and lively debate between members, each session is elevated by a select tasting experience brought to you by Eden Smith.
