On Think Tanks and WonkComms have organised an event to close the On Think Tanks Data Visualisation Competition, supported by the Think Tank Fund. The event, in London, included the participation of Brazilian, Mexican and Czech experts whose visualisations were rewarded by the competition. Watch the video and join the conversation.
Last night we organised a public event to close the data visualisation competition that On Think Tanks ran last year.
This was the first event co-organised with WonkComms (a collective of think tank communication officers in Britain -described to me yesterday as a support group for communication professionals in think tanks).
