Join us for our December Data Analytics Monthly Forum and explore updates in the Microsoft ecosystem!
Our monthly data forum is designed to bring together organisations of all sizes to discuss the latest trends and challenges in the data landscape.
Our Data Analytics Monthly Forum, is now bigger and better than ever! Our primary goal is to ensure that you derive maximum benefits from these sessions and that we consistently deliver value to you. For that reason, we encourage you to reach out to us about topics you’d like to see covered and engage in discussions during the forums.
As 2025 draws to a close, Microsoft Power BI and Fabric continue to evolve rapidly introducing the final wave of updates before we step into 2026.
With so much innovation shaping the Microsoft stack, now is the perfect time to pause and ask: which capabilities are Microsoft developing and what does these mean for my organisation?
This December, join us as we explore the latest updates and emerging features across Power BI and Fabric – unpacking what’s new and why it matters. We’ll dive into key themes including materialised Lake views, enhanced semantic modelling, the refreshed Fabric interface and new geospatial visualisation capabilities. Our Data Forum host, Andrew Edge, will also be joined by Barney Lawrence who will bring fresh perspectives and firsthand insights, directly from this year’s FabCon.
Our final forum of 2025 will provide a forward-looking perspective on how these developments are shaping how we can harness the power of data in 2026.
