Everyone who believes in the value and power of data, the ability to use it to solve problems and inspire creativity. This free, virtual event is open to anyone looking to connect with other data people for sharing best practices, making contacts that will be valuable resources long after the event, and providing support as everyone navigates a rapidly evolving business landscape and world.

Absolutely. We understand how busy life can get. So we’ve developed content that will allow you to hop in and out of the event easily (most episodes are no more than 30 minutes long). If you miss an episode, you can watch a recording of it later. After the event, you will receive an email with instructions for accessing recordings that you can watch at any time.
- Braindates: Have a hobby, passion or idea you’d like to discuss? Create or join a virtual Braindate to expand your network and connect with other like-minded data enthusiasts. Braindates are organised by topic and discussion types: one-to-one for 30 minutes or groups of up to 5 people for 45 minutes. Please note that Braindates are meant to be conversational, thus there are no screen-share capabilities.

- On social: Join the conversation and share on social using #data20.
- Tableau Doctor: Get one-to-one time with Tableau experts in our virtual clinic who can help you solve technical challenges, answer burning questions, break down advanced analytics techniques, help you get the most out of your deployment and more. Browse through a catalogue of topics and schedule an appointment time that’s convenient for you.

For the first time, Tableau Conference is all virtual and fully accessible for everyone to attend! Space is not limited, but we recommend registering as soon as possible to make sure you are the first to know about all event opportunities, such as booking Tableau Doctor appointments, and creating or joining Braindates.
Attendees have the opportunity to schedule either a 20-minute or a 45-minute one-to-one appointment with a Tableau expert to solve technical challenges, review deployments and more. Appointment scheduling opens prior to the event. Look for an email notification directing you to the Tableau Doctor page for more information or to schedule your appointment. Please note: Attendees are limited to three appointments over the duration of the event and will have the possibility to reserve appointments in English and/or other languages. All Tableau Doctor appointments are available on a first-come, first-served basis until all time slots have been taken.
As the event draws near, we will send you emails with helpful information about what to do during the event, how to navigate the event platform and how to start planning your event schedule, including content, Braindates and Tableau Doctor appointments.
In order to get the most out of the event, we’ve found it’s helpful to block time on your calendar now, and give team members a heads up that you will be attending Tableau Conference virtually. And of course, you can invite them to join!
