--- About the talks

Talk: Entity-First Driven Design for Event Data Modeling

Behavioral data is rich, granular, and highly predictive for understanding how customers make decisions. However, it can also be messy and complex, becoming increasingly fragmented over time in downstream modeling. In this talk, we’ll go back to the source of data creation and explore why an Entity-first approach to event data design & modeling can not only transform raw event data into reliable data models and improve analytics quality, but also enable future operational use cases.

Jon Su is a Solutions Architect at Snowplow, collaborating closely with and guiding businesses to design and build out their best-in-class customer data infrastructure on Snowplow. With experience working with customers across retail, fintech, media, and other industries, Jon helps organizations unlock operational value from their behavioral data and turn data into outcomes. Prior to joining Snowplow, Jon worked as the EU Regional Data Analytics Lead for a boutique Google Cloud consultancy where he supported customers with Martech and Cloud technical implementations and roadmap strategies.

NL dbt meetup: 13th Edition
Emiel Ackermann – Technical Lead @ Port of Antwerp-Bruges , Nicolas Jonckheere – Lead Analytics Engineer @ Datashift

We’ll start with a walkthrough of the technical setup of dbt at the Port of Antwerp-Bruges, in the context of a migration to Databricks. Then we'll dive into how we handle deploying dbt to multiple targets for the duration of the migration. Finally we'll compare both environments with insights from an analytics engineering perspective.

With data teams' growing ambition to build business automation, AI systems, or customer-facing products, we must shift our mindset about data quality. Mechanically applied testing will not be enough; we need a more robust strategy similar to software engineering. In this talk, I outline a new approach to data testing and observability anchored in the ‘Data Products’ concept and walk through the practical implementation of a production-grade analytics system with dbt as the backbone. The learnings will apply to data practitioners using dbt whether they're just getting started or working in a large enterprise.

Bart van Delft – Solutions Architect @ dbt Labs

In this meetup, we’ll dive into the latest tools and ideas we’ve been shipping — what they unlock, how they fit together, and why we built them the way we did. This meetup is designed for builders, thinkers, and tinkerers — folks who want to roll up their sleeves (figuratively), learn from each other, and imagine what’s next for the analytics engineering stack. Whether you’re curious about what’s new, want to see how others are approaching similar problems, or just want to ask hard questions — you’re in the right place.
