Glynis Myers

Glynis Myers

Glynis is a Data Journalist and Strategist who believes the secret to AI success is less, not more. With over 15 years of experience spanning marketing analytics, data science, and product leadership, Glynis has seen the full spectrum of digital transformation, from £5M AI investments that imploded due to poor strategy, to £100K tactical implementations that tripled business growth in a single year.

Currently serving as a Data Journalist for a major global travel company, Glynis specialises in closing the "deliberation gap." She moves organisations away from the "adopt everywhere" mentality and toward a "Human-First" framework: starting with rigorous strategic alignment, leveraging AI for efficiency, and returning to human judgment to find the true signal in the noise.

Glynis is known for bringing cross-functional teams together to bridge the gap between technical complexity and business value. She provides audiences with the frameworks needed to communicate data with clarity, purpose, and, most importantly, the "So What." When she isn't hunting for trends in the latest LLM outputs, you can find her on adventure walks throughout London, finding clarity away from the screen.

Raphaël Yharrassarry

Je travaille en freelance comme lead UX designer, psychologue depuis le dernier millénaire. Mon parcours m’a permis de travailler sur des sujets variés allant du WAP à la télévision, en passant par, le web, le e-commerce et les applications professionnelles ou le design de service. Ma vision de l’expérience utilisateur repose sur deux démarches complémentaires, l’une pragmatique autour de la conception de services et l’autre stratégique autour de l’évolution des organisations et l’intégration du design au sein des équipes.

Je travaille depuis 2020 pour beta.gouv.fr toujours en freelance afin d’essayer d’améliorer les services publics avec l’intention de changer le monde, de le rendre meilleur et de limiter la crise climatique qui arrive, mais avant ça il faut que je pense à faire du pain et bien d’autres choses plus ou moins futile comme un potager, du miel et du cidre.

Sandipana Das

Sandipana Das

Sandipana Das is a UX Designer at IBM whose work sits at the intersection of AI, enterprise systems, and human-centered design. Beyond enterprise product design, Sandipana explores the future of learning and equitable access, especially in contexts where technology may extend guidance beyond institutional limits.

She designs for complex, high-stakes environments across sustainability, finance, and knowledge-rich workflows, with a focus on how intelligent systems can better support comprehension, decision-making, and trust.
Her practice combines design strategy, systems thinking, and emerging AI behaviors to examine how interfaces might evolve from reactive tools into more context-aware forms of support. She is particularly interested in adaptive AI, multimodal interaction, and the ethical questions that arise when systems begin interpreting human signals, behavior, and cognitive strain.
