About this Event

Data sets can uncover powerful stories but how do you present them in a way that captures a journalist’s attention? Join Tom Calver, Data Projects Editor at The Times, for a practical Q&A on how to pitch compelling data-driven ideas that stand out. Learn what makes a strong data story, how to frame insights clearly, and what Tom’s looking for when deciding whether a dataset has headline potential.

Seats are £50 and are limited to 100 PRs. Please submit a question for the journalists on the booking form – attendees will have the chance to ask follow ups during the session. Book now if you want to join us.
