The Data Pitch Lab: How to Turn Your Love for Data into a Show
Let’s be honest. Most data isn’t boring. Most presentations of data are.
We’ve all seen it. A great insight buried in a dashboard. A chart that technically makes sense… but somehow says nothing.A room full of smart people… and no one really knows what to do next.
That’s not a data problem. That’s a delivery problem.
The Data Pitch Lab is a hands-on workshop for people who are curious about data, but want to do more than just analyse it. It’s about turning your thinking into something people can actually feel, understand, and act on.
In this session, we take an idea sometimes messy, sometimes overthought and shape it into a clear story and a short, compelling pitch. You’ll learn how to structure your thinking, design with intention, and speak about your data with confidence (without sounding like you’re reading from a dashboard). Expect a mix of storytelling, design, and a bit of performance energy.
By the end, you’ll have the foundation of a data-driven project you can continue to build and the confidence to actually put it out into the world.
Because knowing something is interesting… and making other people care about it…are two very different skills.
This event is hosted by Diverse CDT - The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Data Visualization, a joint venture between City St George's, University of London, and University of Warwick.
