3rd Annual Iron Viz Championship

The time has come again to answer the age old question: whose viz will reign supreme? Come and see the winners from the Tableau Public visualization contests compete against each other to create the best visual story in the room. They’ll begin with the same data and have 20 minutes to create their viz masterpiece. After they’ve created their vizes then an expert panel of judges – and you the audience – will choose who walks home with $2,000 and the title of “Iron Vizzer”. (Vote for Ryan!)

Level: Beginner
Date & Time: Wednesday, September 11, 2013 – 9:45 – 10:45 AM
Location: Woodrow Wilson A
