Dublin Dataviz: Andy Kirk - The 7 Hats of Data Visualisation (Revisited!)
iD8 Studio, The Digital Hub, iD8 Studio at The Gatelodge, Roe Lane (off Thomas Street), The Digital Hub, Dublin 8, D08 EY05, Dublin, IEDublin Dataviz is delighted to welcome Andy Kirk as our first speaker of 2026!
Andy is the founder of Visualising Data and works with clients around the world as a data visualisation design consultant and prolific trainer. He is a a four-times published author and host of the ‘Explore Explain’ video and podcast series.
In his talk, The 7 Hats of Data Visualisation (Revisited!), Andy will showcase the value and richness of data visualisation as a key literacy in this contemporary digital age. We all have a stake in this, whether that is through our roles as creators, consumers or coordinators, but it can appear to be a substantial challenge to fully embrace the multi-disciplinarity of this subject, whether as individuals or more generally across organisations.
Framed as the ‘7 hats’ of data visualisation, Andy will look back over his 15+ years of experience developing an expertise in this subject to present his view of the major competency ‘ingredients' that make up the all-round talent recipe of a visualiser today. He will differentiate the knowledge required from skills necessary to demonstrate, the attitudinal maturity from the technical intelligence. He will also advise on some of the strategies that will help you continue to develop and refine your data visualisation literacy.
Join us for what's going to be an amazing evening, with pints in Arthurs pub surely to follow.
