18:05 - Chris Webb: What’s new in Power Query in Power BI, Excel and Fabric?
Power Query is the self-service data transformation tool in Power BI Desktop, Fabric Dataflows and Excel. In this session you'll find out about new user interface features, new M functions, new data sources and data destinations, and lots more new functionality that has been added in the last year.

18:50 - Break - Networking with free pizza and drinks!

19:10 - Nikola Ilic: Crash course on Data Visualisation in Power BI
You've connected to a data source and imported data into Power BI - now what? You need to display the information to users in the most effective way!

Is 40 million of revenue good or bad? Are your visuals equally accessible to anyone? How to display detailed data, or highlight important points?

In this session, we'll examine different ways of (mis)representing data in your visuals. You'll understand why context is the key, how to choose the appropriate visualization type for certain business scenarios, and how to configure and format visualizations to provide additional value to your Power BI reports.

20:00 - Finish
