About Event

​SELECT * FROM london WHERE job LIKE '%data%' AND saturday_plans IS NULL;

​returned you? come climbing with us 🐒

​a lot of us work remote, so most of the data people we know are little squares on a video call. we’ve also done enough conferences and pizza-and-a-talk nights to last a while. so we’re going bouldering instead, and then probably eating too much at Nando’s

​about the climbing
i’m Daniel, one of the organisers. i’ve been four times and V3 is my limit on a good day. a few of the crew have been climbing for 15 years and float up V7/8, which is a bit annoying, but they’re nice about it and everyone helps each other out. you can stay on the easy V1s all afternoon and just chat, honestly half of us will

​who’s coming
heads of data, analytics leads and software engineers who somehow got roped into data from companies Octopus Energy, Cloudflare, Voy, Monzo, Wise, British Airways, Querio engineers and other famous UK PLCs
