This year’s awards saw a record 448 entries, making the decisions tougher than ever for the judging panel, which comprised some of the most respected figures in data science from organisations such as Bank of England and DLA Piper. To be recognised amongst winners that included FTSE 100 companies, innovative start-ups, government departments, and not-for-profits is a real honour.
