Data-driven. Padel-powered 🎾.

LACO’ers on the court💥!
Lobs. Volleys. Smashes. Balls off the glass. And lots of fun!

Turns out, that next to data, we’re pretty good with rackets too 😉.

Double trouble on stage 🔥🔥
Two LACO minds.
Twice the data brainpower.

This year, Helena Lecluyse and Maarten van Stiphout will both take the stage at DataMinds Connect.

Different topics.
Different angles.
Same love for data that actually makes sense.

👉 Helena will talk about why Human Sciences belong in data. Because tools matter, but so do people, context and communication.

👉 Maarten will take on data modelling. Not as a strict rulebook. Not as controlled chaos. But as something that should fit the purpose.

Two sessions to add to your dataMinds Connect agenda.

And yes, we are just a little excited about this 🤗

Some tickets disappear faster than your favourite festival passes 🎟️

DataMinds Connect is one of those events.

From 12 to 14 October, the Belgian Microsoft Data Platform community gathers again in Mechelen for three packed days of data, AI, Microsoft Fabric, Power BI, Azure, SQL Server and everything in between.

And LACO will be there again as a partner 😎

Because where data people meet, learn, discuss and get just a little too excited about architecture, models and dashboards, we like to be close.

So if data is your thing, you don't want to miss this!

Fancy being part of the team next time?

From data lakes to alpine slopes ⛷️

We went on our yearly snow trip. Team LACO swapped dashboards for downhill runs in Ischgl, trading data models for mountain views, ski boots and a few legendary après-ski moments.

A good reminder that behind every modern data platform is a group of people who know how to work hard, laugh loud and enjoy the ride together.

Curious what life at LACO looks like?
This is part of the dataset 😉
