What we’re about
Do you love Excel?
Or maybe just like it (that's ok) and want to know more.
This meetup will consist of a talk from 1 or more speakers, whom will share some knowledge and tips.
There will be time before and after the talks to connect with other attendees and the speakers. More time to chat, share knowledge and help each other.
This is an informal and relaxed environment. Come along for a cup of tea or coffee, meetup with other like-minded people and learn and share some Excel magic.
This event is hosted by Datel Productions. We meet monthly at one of two venues in London. We have a venue at Victoria and one at Vauxhall.
We alternate between the two venues. Both offer great facilities for sharing knowledge and also relaxing with a drink.

We will build a custom splitter that tackles case variations with ease.

Get ready to level up your data game!
