Data Thursday
Details
Hi✋
At Data Tribes we organise Meetups because we truly care about sharing knowledge both inside and outside the organisation. We believe that it is beneficial to us and to the market as a whole to connect, create, learn and grow together!
We are proud to announce Marco Wobben & Remco Broekmans as our special guest speakers for the first edition of Data Thursday!
BIO Marco Wobben
Marco is the director of BCP Software and has been developing software well over 30 years. He has developed a wide range of applications from financial expert software, software to remotely operate bridges, automating DWH generating and loading, and many back- and front office and web applications.
Since 2001, he's the product manager and lead developer of CaseTalk, the CASE tool for fact based information modeling, which is widely taught in universities in the Netherlands and across the globe. CaseTalk enables building rich information models based on natural language using concrete examples to capture the knowledge from domain experts. CaseTalk generates a wide range of technical artifacts to drive technical implementations by model to model transformations.
Fact oriented information modeling is the very opposite of abstract, using natural language to express facts that are intelligible to both business and IT. It does not require an understanding of the magical language of boxes and arrows. Although CaseTalk can present the modelled information in several diagramming notations, the information can always be expressed in natural language. This gives data modelers, technically skilled people, and business people the benefit of having a fully documented, and easily validated model.
BIO Remco Broekmans
Remco is the vice president of international programs for Genesee Academy. He works in Business Intelligence and Enterprise Data Warehousing as a trainer, advisor and speaker with a focus on modeling and architecture including Ensemble and Data Vault modeling. He works internationally, and is based in the Netherlands. Remco is working in business intelligence and data warehousing sinds 1998 starting out as a consultant building reports, dashboards, data marts and data warehouses. Since 2004, Remco has taught different classes on business intelligence and data warehousing, and has worked for several consulting companies before starting his own companies; Coarem and BI Academy.
