Big Data & Analytics West Summit 2026Might goIn Vancouver, BC (YVR)ConferenceNovember 3 to 4, 2026 JW Marriott Parq Vancouver $895.00–$1,595.00 CAD Strategy InstituteAnu's Take
A summit about clean, trustworthy data whose own website still lists two different Vancouver hotels for the venue. Their own logo still brands this as the sixth annual, so I modified the image on this card to remove that, and will leave it until they update theirs to reflect that this is the seventh. I say all of it with some sympathy, though: getting your own facts to line up is the whole job, and it is harder than any keynote about it will admit.

Data Talk - Leveling Up Video Game AnalyticsI'm goingIn Victoria, BC (YYJ)Talk5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Frontier Co-Working Space (Motus Design Group) Free–$10.00 CAD Victoria Data SocietyAnu's Take
Most companies say they are data-driven and mean they own a dashboard nobody opens. Games run the real version, because when the numbers are wrong the players simply leave, and no quarterly narrative will talk them back. The AAA versus indie split is the part worth showing up for: same questions, wildly different budgets, and the small studios cannot buy their way out of thinking.

Legacy, IBM mainframe. Geez, IBM and legacy in the same sentence is an understatement. Leave it to a Canadian firm to sort out IBM. If only Fresche had been around when the Phoenix pay system was being scoped.
