Retro Data is the brainchild of Andy Cutler and Justin Bird, co-organisers of DataToboggan and DataWeekender respectively.

As organisers, it's really apparent how quickly the latest tech becomes the sole topic of conversation, but that leaves a huge gap for everyone bar the early adopters. We wanted to do something a little different and focus on practical frameworks, fundamental principles and real world experiences.

This first event is really a bit of an experiment to see what sort of interest we will get, from both speakers, and audience. If you have any feedback, suggestions, comments please reach out, we would love you to help us shape this into something really valuable.

We will be organising attendance via Meetup: https://meetup.com/retro-data/

This alpha event is likely to only be a single track of 60 minute sessions. Provisional times are 08:30 - 17:30 BST but will be subject to change.

Ideally we would prefer talks that are not focused on the latest tech. We do not want talks on preview features. We are really excited to see what sort of ideas you come up with!

All speakers will be contacted whether successful or not. We expect speakers to refrain from announcing their acceptance until we have announced the agenda ourselves.
