20 September 2022 QlikWorld Amsterdam 2022 – recap and speaker presentations Share this message On September 7th Bitmetric hosted QlikWorld Amsterdam 2022. The topic for this year was “Be Certain with Qlik,” and it did not disappoint. We published a short photo impression of the event last week. This week we’ll go a bit more in-depth on the contents and speakers. Additionally, you can now download all the speaker presentations. Keynote speakers at QlikWorld Amsterdam 2022 The day began with Bitmetric’s owner and founder, Barry Harmsen, greeting participants and providing a concise rundown of the day’s events. Angelika Klidas, Bitmetric’s Operations Manager and Data Literacy Evangelist delivered the Qlik Vision Keynote. Maarten Anema, Senior Business Intelligence Consultant, delivered the Qlik Product Keynote. Angelika Klidas – Qlik Vision Keynote In the Qlik Vision Keynote titled “Creating certainty in a changing world” Angelika discussed how leaders are addressing uncertainty. She shared current market trends and opportunities, and how Qlik and data can help you capture these and increase certainty. Angelika introduced Van Oord’s Gerben de Boer who shared an inspirational use of analytics for good. Van Oord’s Climate Risk Overview application offers a map that overlays open source data over the world’s coasts. To anticipate worldwide flooding risk, the overview integrates crucial characteristics such as population, low-lying area, and predicted sea level rise. This tool is the first stage in a bigger initiative to assist coastal communities in adapting to climate change. Qlik Sense was used to develop the Climate Risk Overview. The internal Qlik Sense version is used to investigate new data and visuals. An inspiring use case! Maarten Anema – Qlik Product Keynote Maarten Anema delivered the Qlik Product Keynote on Active Intelligence. He showed how the convergence between Data Integration and Business Intelligence drives business value and shared an overview of the Qlik Active Intelligence Platform. Maarten took a deeper dive into some of the cool new features and functionalities that were delivered in the past few months. Such as: Cloud Data Services Catalog and Lineage Qlik automated machine learning with Qlik AutoML Reporting Services Direct Query Application Automation Qlik Forts Qlik Marketplace It was great seeing how quickly the Qlik Active Intelligence Platform has been developing, and exciting to learn what’s next in the pipeline. Client speakers Three of our clients presented at QlikWorld Amsterdam; Vincent Borloz of IKEA, Brian Westeneng of DPG Media and Rob van Vliet of Medux. We’re very proud to be working with such cool clients and appreciate their willingness to share the success they’ve had with Qlik software and Bitmetric. Vincent Borloz – IKEA Vincent Borloz of IKEA was the first to share his expertise with the audience. In his presentation, Vincent clearly explained how the goals and business case of a Qlik Sense application are established and prioritized within IKEA. Some crucial points that Vincent discussed where how to establish clear roles and responsibilities, how to encourage adoption and how to ensure that data is actionable. He also showed how IKEA employs agile product development and emphasized certain clever business intelligence ideas that IKEA uses to build excellent Qlik Sense apps. Brian Westeneng – DPG Media Brain Westeneng from DPG Media demonstrated their Digital Campaign Portal powered by the Qlik Sense Analytics Platform and developed together with Bitmetric. Although under the hood everything is Qlik Sense, you would never guess it looking at the front end. The portal offers an easy-to-use interface via which DPG’s clients, advertising agencies and account managers can view all of their campaign data in a single integrated location.
