Iron Viz 2023: Best in Class

 

Day two of Tableau Conference 2023 saw three fierce data whizzes take the stage for this year’s Iron Viz competition. In front of a massive global crowd, both in-person and virtual, they raced the clock and battled dashboard-to-dashboard to create mind-blowing visualizations.

 

Congratulations to Paul Ross, who inspired and impressed the judges and audience with his visualization—Can We Close the Climate Gap? A Tale of Two Renewables. Much admiration and enthusiasm for our other finalists,  Brittany Rosenau and Nirosh Perera, too.

What is Iron Viz?

Watch a preview

Iron Viz is the world’s largest data visualization competition. What began as a breakout session at Tableau Conference 2011 has grown into a global phenomenon and become a core part of the Tableau Community. Three Iron Viz contenders take center stage and have 20 minutes to tell the most compelling story using the same data set. Like the qualifier leading up to it, contestants’ vizzes are scored based on analysis, storytelling, and design. It is something you must see to truly understand.
