[ONLINE]: Meet Amazing Women in Data

We're back with another virtual HER+Data meetup of 2022 - a lunch time affair on Thursday July 21st @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:
Chanade Hemming, Head of Data Products, Virgin Media O2
Chanade is currently working at Virgin Media O2 heading up the Product Management function within Advanced Analytics & Data Science. Chanade has scaled the team over the last 18 months to an established function with many data products in production, and data product managers on the team. Chanade has spent her career in product; helping companies validate, build and scale things people love and use. For the last 5 years she's been doing this on the 'inside' as opposed to agency/consulting. In 2021, Chanade moved away from digital product into data product, swapping the likes of wireframes, clicktale and Zeplin for Big Query, dbt and visualisations in Jupyter Notebooks.

Chanade is going to talk about "Data as a Product - how we're helping a legacy company unlock value through data."
