Eivind Haugen

I am a Data and AI lead consultant specializing in Power BI semantic modeling and data visualization.

After a decade in quantitative risk analysis in the oil and gas industry, I shifted to "the new oil" (data) in 2017. Since then I have worked extensively with Diver (Dimensional Insight) and Power BI and, more recently, Microsoft Fabric since its public preview in 2023. I am also a proficient user of external Power BI tools, with a primary focus on Tabular Editor.

My core passion is enabling teams to build semantic models and visualizations efficiently while maintaining quality.

My professional strength is translating business requirements into actionable, analytical solutions.

I recently became a certified Tabular Editor trainer and have started presenting at community and professional events, including New Stars of Data (May 2025). My talks emphasize a Done in 60 Seconds philosophy: practical demos on how to perform tasks in seconds that normally take hours.

I love solving problems with technology. Working across the whole spectrum of the M365 product suite, SharePoint, Teams, and the Power Platform apps are the main topics of my day job. Charts and data visualisation with Excel and Power BI are my favourite topics, but I also like a good dig around data with Power Query and DAX. I've been working with SharePoint for over 15 years, building sites, process automation and online integrations. After hours I spend a lot of time in online forums for Excel with the web alias "teylyn". As an end user, I prefer solutions that use the built-in functionality and as little custom code as possible. I've been a Microsoft MVP since 2012.

Adam Sroka

Adam Sroka

Dr Adam Sroka, Head of Machine Learning Engineering at Origami Energy, is an experienced data and AI leader helping organisations unlock value from data by delivering enterprise-scale solutions and building high-performing data and analytics teams from the ground up. Adam shares his thoughts and ideas through public speaking, tech community events, on his blog, and in his podcast.

Many organisations aren't getting the most out of their data and many data professionals struggle to communicate their results or the complexity and value of their work in a way that business stakeholders can relate to. Being able to understand both the technology and how it translates to real benefits is key.

Simply hiring the most capable people often isn’t enough. The solution is a mix of clear and explicit communication, strong fundamentals and engineering discipline, and an appetite to experiment and iterate to success quickly.

If this is something you’re struggling with - either as an organisation finding its feet with data and AI or as a data professional - the approaches and systems Adam has developed over his career will be able to help so please reach out.

Cutting edge data technologies are redefining every industry and adopting these new ways of working can be difficult and frustrating. One day, there will be best practices and playbooks for how to maximise the value from your data and teams, but until then Adam is eager to share his experiences in both business and data and shed some light on what works.
