ABOUT US

We enable data and AI leaders to drive impact

Our story

DataIQ was founded in 2011 to create the first community and support network for the emerging data & analytics profession. The company has evolved to become the leading dedicated independent organisation for data and AI leaders and their teams.

Today we curate the world’s foremost data and AI peer-to-peer network, provide invaluable insight and benchmarking solutions, and run the profession’s most respected and valued recognition programmes including the DataIQ 100 and DataIQ Awards. Together, they play a crucial role raising the profile of leaders and their teams, celebrating their success helping them attract new talent, and new investment from their organisations.

Over the years, we have supported many of the leading global datacentric enterprises across all sectors including Aviva, Barclays, EDF, Heineken, Mars, Sainsbury’s, Starbucks, Walgreens Boots Alliance, and Zurich to name just a few.

In 2024, DataIQ merged with Data Leaders, combining two pioneering organisations into the most comprehensive and influential network for data and AI professionals.
