This was the 'Women in data' event: recap
Last evening, March 21, we brought together 4 future-forward data companies, all in the theme of #womenindata! Everyone interested in #data, #womenintech or those, who just felt like having a fun evening, came together to listen to inspiring speakers, connect with nice people and enjoy a lovely snack and drink! In short; a ๐ edition of our (first๐) Women in data event!
This evening was co-hosted with our 4 fantastic partners, QuaData, Kohera, Sparkle and RedMojoย and what a success! With over 70 people we came together to explore the wonderful world of data and meet like-minded people.๐ญ Below is a short recap of the different speakers and inspiring panel discussion!
The first keynote was delivered by Sophie Angenot, Managing Partner of QuaData. In this keynote, she highlighted the key aspects of Agile Data Governance and what is the importance of standards for compliance, quality, availability and usability. She therefore strongly believes that the future of data lies in Agile Data Governance and we felt that passion all the way to the back!
Then Elena Nuรฑez Castellar, AI lead & translator consultant at Sparkle-Cronos Group, and Karolien Scheerlinck, AI translator at VDAB, added a duo keynote highlighting the pathway in which you can evolve from algorithms to products and thus to cutomer journeys. An interesting path to walk!
After these interesting keynotes, it was time for the panel discussion. In this session, Jessica Reulens, co-Founder, Head of Data Analysis at Cake, and Hanne Vandael, People Analytics Consultant at Redmojo, shared their experiences about finding their path in data.
Finally, we paired up attendees for a 1:1 networking where ideas, experiences and so much more could be shared and fun connections made!
Thank you๐คฉ to all the attendees for making this evening such a success!

We're finally doing it: we're hosting a mentorship program for our community members! ๐ This year-long program will connect mentors and mentees to share knowledge, grow together, and make a real impact. Ready to join? Find out more here!
This workshop with expert Helen Tubb is meant for leaders to discover the power of sponsorship. Unlike mentorship, coaching and other support, sponsorship engages leaders and managers in actively advocating, creating career-critical opportunities and addressing implicit barriers for 'different' aspiring professionals.
