Driven by Data Production Partners for 2026

These are the organisations we’ve deliberately chosen to work with across the Driven by Data ecosystem. They’re not here by chance. Every partner has been selected based on their relevance, credibility and ability to add genuine value to our community of senior data, analytics and AI leaders. Throughout the year, you’ll see them contributing across our events, podcast, magazine and wider community initiatives; not as sponsors in the background, but as active participants in the conversations that matter.

Explore who they are, what they do, and where you can connect with them as part of the Driven by Data community.

We set out to build the world’s most trusted consulting firm – creating lasting impact for clients and pioneering a positive, people-first way of working. We work with everyone from FTSE 100 names to bright new start-ups, in every sector. ​ You’ll find us collaborating shoulder-to-shoulder with our clients, from the big picture right down to the detail: helping them define their strategy, deliver complex change, spot the right commercial opportunities, manage risk or bring their purpose and sustainability goals to life. Our clients love how we get to know what makes their businesses tick – slotting seamlessly into their teams and being proudly geeky about solving their challenges. ​ We have hubs in Europe, the US, Asia and Australia, and we work all around the world – from a wind farm in Wyoming to a boardroom in Berlin. Find us wherever there’s a challenge to be tackled and an impact to be made.

The consultancy, with an anti-consulting ethos. The tech consulting industry is broken. We don’t have ‘cookie cutter’ problems so we don’t need ‘cookie cutter’ solutions. But Technology is changing quicker than most can keep up, and it’s only going to get harder. Organisations need to own their journey where the only constant is change. The answer lies in data. FOIL helps you to get value from your data and differentiate with AI, by building tools and teams that last through change. Our mission? To make you self sufficient.

Starburst was founded by the inventors of OS Trino so that data-driven companies could have a full-featured open data lakehouse platform powered by the #1 SQL analytics engine. Our end-to-end analytics platform includes the capabilities needed to discover, organize, consume, and share data with industry-leading price-performance for cloud and on-premises workloads. We believe the lakehouse should be the center of gravity, but support accessing data outside the lake when needed. With Starburst, teams can access more complete data, run scalable analytics, lower the cost of infrastructure, use tools best suited to their needs, and avoid vendor lock-in. Trusted by companies like Apache Corporation, Comcast, Doordash, DBS Bank, and VMware, Starburst helps you make better decisions faster on all data. Join us! — Our company was founded in an unusual way; with customers and revenue from the beginning! Our growth is already ahead of some of the most successful software start-ups, and we don’t plan on slowing down. We believe our opportunity is huge. Every large company in the world suffers from a data silo problem. Traditional data warehouse products approach the problem with old solutions that breed inefficiency and ultimately can’t help business analysts run fast analytics on all their data. This prevents the business from making better decisions to improve their company’s performance. Starburst provides a modern solution that addresses these data silo & speed of access problems. Starburst helps enterprises harness the value of Trino, the fastest distributed query engine available today, by adding the tools and 24×7 support that meet the needs for big data access at scale. Ultimately, Starburst helps organizations run analytics anywhere to make better business decisions.
