Our Monthly Event Debriefs summarize our involvement in data and IT events that take place all over the world.
October reigned supreme with the busiest event of our year: the 2017 Tableau Conference. If you missed the conference, we have many blogs devoted to TC17. Whether you want a keynote analysis or a social media summary, chances are it is on our blog.
But let’s step away from TC17 for a moment. Our October event calendar was bursting with workshops, TUGs and IT conferences. In fact, October 12th may have been the busiest day on our 2017 event calendar with not one, not two, but three events taking place in three different countries! Talk about a global reach.
Check out some of the upcoming events on our calendar!
