News 23/06/2017

On Thursday 18 May, our Head of Data, Brian Hills, won ‘Best in Class’ in the Data Science, Analytics and Quality category at the Data 50 Awards in London.

The Data 50 Awards is a UK initiative by Information Age, for celebrating data leadership and excellence. The list is updated annually to recognise the top individuals and companies creating business value and innovation from data in the UK.

Brian was initially selected amongst the UK top 50 Data Leaders last month, and was announced as one of the 12 winners out of over 300 nominations during an awards ceremony held at Montcalm London Marble Arch on Thursday night.

The awards honour people and firms at the forefront of data “ those transforming organisations and enhancing decision-making through its use, managing and controlling its proliferating growth, and driving business value.

Huge congratulations Brian, from all the team at The Data Lab!
