[ONLINE]: Meet Amazing Women in Data Oct 2022

We're back with another virtual HER+Data meetup of 2022 - a lunch time affair on Thursday October 27th @12:30pm IST/GMT. We'll have talks from 2 amazing women who work with data! Join, ask questions and meet other women who love data.

Speakers:
Elisabeth Rotrou, Head of Research & Insights, Spendesk
Elisabeth stepped into Product Management early on in her career. The various Product roles she held at Criteo, Credit Suisse, Yellow Pages and a couple of startups exposed her to most angles of the discipline. The one thing that never changed throughout the years was the central role data played in her decision making process. At Spendesk, which she joined in 2019 as Head of Product, Elisabeth recognized the growing need for the organization to up-level decision making with broader and more reliable access to insights to inform product and growth strategies. She therefore created a team of pluridisciplinary researchers dedicated to expanding, growing and distributing market and user knowledge throughout the company and beyond.

Elisabeth is going talk about the rationale and journey for creating the Research & Insights group at Spendesk, and challenges / learnings so far.
