DataIQ Awards - Anita Fernqvist scoops top prize as Channel 4 takes three

LONDON - July 12, 2019 - PRLog -- Anita Fernqvist, chief data officer at Zurich Insurance UK, walked away from the DataIQ Awards last night clutching the Grand Prix, having already been handed the title of Data and analytics leader of the year (Data Titan). At the sell-out event held in the V&A, Fernqvist's leadership was recognised for helping the data office to grow from a small team to a major function with the ear of the board.

Twenty-two other companies shared the prizes on a night which saw the depth and breadth of the data and analytics industry honoured. "It was a great opportunity to recognise and reward the innovation, impact and energy found from top to bottom in this sector," said David Reed, knowledge and strategy director of DataIQ who hosted the event. "Our panel of judges - all senior practitioners in end-user organisations - had a tough job picking from a record-breaking number of entries. The fact our winners list is so diverse just goes to show how far-reaching the transformation being driven by data really is."
