Join us for an unmissable evening of insight, discussion, and lively debate at The High Performance Data and AI Debate, hosted by Chris Tabb — a unique Big Data London special running from 6:00–8:00 PM. This fast-paced, interactive event brings together some of the brightest minds in data and AI to tackle the most pressing questions shaping the future of teams, architecture, and products in an AI-first world.

The evening kicks off at 6:00 PM with a welcome and free drinks. Then, across three rapid-fire 20-minute debates, our expert panels will explore:

• AI & Data – Teams (Chair: Eevamaija Virtanen)

Mehdi Ouazza, Paul Rankin, Jesse Anderson, Hugo Lu

• AI & Data – Architecture (Chair: Adi Polak)

Chris Freestone, David Richardson, Nick White, Karl Ivo Sokolov

• AI & Data – Products (Chair: Jai Parmar)

Kelsey Hammock, Jean-Georges (jgp) Perrin, Taylor McGrath, Jon Cooke

Refuel with free pizza at 6:50 PM, then stay for the Town Hall Debate, where all speakers return to the stage for an open-floor Q&A — your chance to challenge their ideas, share perspectives, and shape the conversation.

Expect fresh perspectives, healthy disagreement, and practical takeaways you can bring back to your organisation. Whether you’re leading a data team, designing cutting-edge architectures, or building AI-powered products, this is your space to engage with the people shaping what’s next.
