This year we went on an adventure in the Ardennes for our teambuilding. We were challenged as a team to communicate well, to work together, and to trust each other. We faced our fears and learned to keep moving forward, not knowing what to expect next. 💙💚Thanks for the great experience!🙌

Just a quick hello from the roof top at our office in the Watt tower in Antwerp. The lift party was long overdue and it was great meeting other companies at other floors that usually remain unaccessible. For us, it'll be the last time however, as we will be packing next week and move into a larger office, just down the street in the C-hive building. More on that to come!

Learning from real-life experiences with our colleagues is a core part of our approach to knowledge management. As a growing team, we strongly emphasize this structured and organic practice sharing. Our quarterly strategy meeting helps everyone in our team to share their views on current technology trends, good practices, and lessons learned in projects.

A few tips to run similar sessions:

1. Keep the sessions short and diverse. Invite colleagues to share remarkable insights and learnings from the past quarter but keep it light and accessible. Sessions take 20 minutes or less.

2. Don't focus on just technology. Everyone participates in sharpening the strategy and narrative of the company, regardless of experience level. Every idea can be a great idea.

3. End with beer and pizzas. Rather than Amazon's "2 pizza rule", we maintain a ratio of half a 40cm pizza per person. And we order a lot.

4. Be like Bob, our colleague in the picture. Find a quiet spot for yourself to embed some learnings as they pass by at a high pace.

5. This is not an afternoon event, but a practice that is embedded in everyday professional life. We treat knowledge management the same way we'd treat a data product. It comes with backlog management, prioritization, ex*****on cycles, and retrospectives.

We love those small accents and details during our update meetings and want to improve even more. What are your recommendations?

Our first in-person event after the Covid lockdown is a wrap. Our Data For Breakfast event, co-hosted with Snowflake, catered to over 100 people. Over 30 people joined for the hands-on workshop we hosted and our CEO joined a round table talk with Deloitte and DPD on governing sensitive data and cost control using public cloud.

The growing demand for more detailed data grows, implies privileged access to sensitive data. A policy based approach to data masking simplifies data management and improves auditability.

☁️ Snowflake just released extended data masking capabilities and we had the privilege to run a quick hackathon with them.

Data masking at query time helps to consolidate statistical and operational use cases in one platform. Learn how!
