It’s time to (finally) take the spotlight
Share your experience. Inspire your peers. And give visibility to your Data projects.
Our mission
You are working on strategic Data projects with real impact on products, decisions, and business performance.
And yet, these stories are rarely told.
We believe each of you has a project you are proud of, one that deserves to step out of the shadows to inspire and empower others.
Data’Talk is a stage designed for you.
A space to share your experience, express your vision, and contribute to growing the Data community in Switzerland.
Inspire
Share what drives you.
A project, a lesson learned, or a strong conviction.
Speak to peers who face the same challenges as you.
Create synergies
Let ideas flow across industries.
Finance, industry, luxury, healthcare, tech…
DatAfterwork is a unique space where perspectives meet, and where best practices evolve through cross-industry exchange.
Share
Your experience has value.
Your successes, as well as your failures, can make a real difference.
They can shed light, accelerate learning, and help others grow.
Our support journey: from application to spotlight
Speaking on stage can feel intimidating, especially the first time.
That’s exactly why we designed this journey.
Every step is built to support you, boost your confidence, and help you turn your experience into a clear, impactful, and inspiring message.
What may feel challenging at first often becomes a defining experience… one that makes you want to do it again.
