Intro

Our very first podcast was published on this day four years ago.  

Yes, Valentine’s Day!  

And we can happily say that the Hub & Spoken community has grown bigger and stronger, expanding globally with listeners spread across 126 countries. 

We’re proud to be joined by amazing guests (true leaders in the real sense of the word), and to be able to share the important topics discussed with such openness and frankness. Hosted by Jason Foster, our CEO, conversations cover all aspects of data strategy, business value, AI, diversity, leadership, mental-wellbeing and beyond. What makes Hub and Spoken incredibly special is the human factor: the brilliance of the guests, their forward-thinking approach and their desire to do well in their role, for their organisation and society.  

 

100 Episodes & Special Series 

It’s a great ride and just a couple of months ago we reached the milestone of 100 Episodes. To mark the occasion, we invited back our first ever guest on episode 1, Pete Williams, CDO at Penguin Random House. But this time the tables were turned, and for episode 100 he interviewed Jason! They discussed the evolution of the data, reviewed Hub & Spoken and covered the importance of data in society’s progress. 

We curated Special Series of inspiring conversations with outstanding business, data and technology leaders taken from the first 100 podcasts.  This series of six podcasts brings together a selection of insightful nuggets to help inform and inspire the best results from data and analytics. 

Each episode focuses on a key theme, central to success with data and in business.
