I'm very passionate about data and analytics. I've spent a massive amount of time learning Power BI. Through this learning process I felt that others may also be interested. Thus, I created a website, a knowledge repository for all things Power BI, ( powerbi.tips ). This site is uniquely set up for people to read and learn about data modeling and visualizations within Power BI.

Flávio Fernandes

Flávio Fernandes

Flávio Fernandes is CEO and Partner at booldata. He got into analytics years ago for a simple reason: he liked the moment when a messy spreadsheet finally made sense to the people using it. That curiosity has never really left, and it eventually led him toward a PhD, where he now researches how organisations can responsibly integrate AI into their decision-making.

Today he spends his time with clients and the booldata team, turning ambitious data goals into something people can run with week to week. He is happiest in the conversation where a business question meets a technical choice: what to build first, what can wait, and how to keep momentum without trying to fix everything at once.

The decade-plus of experience behind that comes from a varied path: early consultancy work with companies of all sizes, a stint at the Betsson Group in Malta that broadened both his technical and people skills, and BI leadership roles at Deco PROTESTE and NOS before founding booldata. He knows the platform stack, Power BI, Microsoft Fabric, the broader Microsoft data ecosystem, but he will be the first to say that tools matter less than clarity: who needs the answer, by when, and what decision it unlocks.

Flávio is based in Porto and helped build booldata for mid-sized organisations that want to move faster on data without adopting a heavyweight consultancy playbook. You will often find his posts here on what is changing in analytics, and increasingly, on where AI fits into all of it.

Michael John Pena

Michael John Pena

MJ Peña is an engineer-turned-founder with 15+ years building data platforms, shipping products, and leading engineering teams across Fortune 500, ASX200, and government organisations.

He started writing C# and SQL Server as a developer, progressed through architect and CTO roles, and went on to found companies as his principal vehicle for delivering Microsoft Fabric, Azure, and AI engineering to enterprise and mid-market clients. He also holds board, non-executive, and investor positions across several technology startups and private ventures.

What hasn't changed across those 15+ years: he remains a hands-on problem-solver who can go from whiteboard architecture to writing production code — and who believes clean pipelines, observable systems, and teams that ship with confidence matter more than hype.

He is a dual Microsoft MVP (Azure & AI) for 11 consecutive years, a Microsoft Certified Trainer who has taught 1,000+ engineers globally across Fabric, Purview, and Azure OpenAI, and a published O'Reilly author currently completing DP-700: Microsoft Fabric Analytics Engineer Study Guide. He presents regularly at Microsoft Reactor and tech conferences across the region.

Not everything has gone to plan — bad crypto bets, toxic workplaces, wrong hires, lost accounts, failed products. He's learned more from those than from the wins, and he tries to pass those lessons on through mentorship, community, and writing.

He aspires to be better every day. And to make AI practical rather than theoretical.

Romano Roth

I believe the next competitive edge isn’t AI itself, it’s the organisation around it. Feedback loops, governance, and continuous adaptation across people, process, and technology.

My Story
With over two decades in the technology sector, I focus on AI-augmented delivery, platform engineering, and enterprise evolution. As Group Chief AI Officer (CAIO) at Zühlke, I shape the global strategy and service portfolio for AI-Augmented Delivery & Platform, AI integration, platform engineering, and cloud solutions. My work redefines how organizations innovate, adapt, and scale in industries such as finance, insurance, cybersecurity, energy, healthcare, and aerospace.

In a world reshaped by Artificial Intelligence (AI), I believe the key to resilience and competitiveness lies in becoming AI-augmented, AI-enabled, and ultimately AI-native: a new operating model driven by feedback loops, intelligent workflows, and self-learning systems that place customer success at the center. I empower companies to continuously create value by harmonizing people, processes, technology, and AI.

I began my journey at Zühlke more than two decades ago, evolving from software engineer and architect to trusted consultant, and now to my leadership role as Chief AI Officer. My passion for value creation through automation and quality led me from engineering into the DevOps movement and further into the forefront of enterprise transformation.

I organize the monthly DevOps Meetup in Zürich and serve as president of DevOpsDays Zürich, an annual conference within the global DevOps movement. I share my insights via my YouTube channel, with over 500 videos, and through well over 30 blog articles focused on DevOps, architecture, leadership, and transformation.

My commitment to thought leadership and education extends to my role as a lecturer in DevOps leadership, agile methodologies, digital transformation, and enterprise architecture at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts. I champion a culture of innovation and agility, helping enterprises evolve into adaptive systems capable of thriving in complex, fast-changing environments.

My work has been recognized through several awards and honors, reflecting my contributions to technology leadership and digital transformation.

Roberto Grifalconi

Roberto Grifalconi

I have a software background: I’ve worked in several companies and co-founded a start-up. For over 10 years, I worked as a Product Owner, partnering closely with teams and stakeholders to turn complex needs into sustainable solutions—balancing technical constraints, user experience, and business goals.

Over time, my focus shifted from “what we build” to “how we work together”. Very often, the real bottleneck isn’t strategy, but conversations, priorities, dependencies, and decision quality. Today I support individuals, teams, and organisations as an ICF coach, facilitator, and trainer. My approach is practical and non-judgemental: I help make visible what often remains implicit (flows, friction, decisions, responsibilities) and turn it into achievable, sustainable steps.

My work typically falls into three areas:

* Conversations that make a difference**: feedback and difficult conversations, with a focus on emotional intelligence at work, to improve collaboration, psychological safety, and shared accountability.
* People, behaviours, and organisational risk**: noticing weak signals in the organisation and exploring how leadership, delegation, and transparency affect prevention, reputation, and retention.
* Organisations that can navigate complexity**: building continuity between decisions and action, clarifying priorities, and making work flows clearer and more sustainable—using continuous improvement and transparency to look ahead and learn from experience.

When it helps, I also run facilitated workshops (e.g., LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and Event Storming) to build shared understanding and turn it into concrete choices. My goal is to help people and organisations pursue ambitious outcomes without jargon—through clarity, respect for company culture, and a sustainable pace of improvement.
