AI Reality Tour 2025
Wednesday 1st October
This year’s AI Reality Tour is making a stop in Birmingham
The event is free to attend and will be held at Everyman Birmingham Mailbox, just a stone's throw from New Street Station.


What is AI Reality Tour?
It's an annual Qlik event with real examples instead of sales pitches.
Companies will show you how they actually use their data to make decisions.
The kind of stuff you can actually implement.
And yes, that includes showing where AI actually fits, and proves valuable, not just possible.
Our sponsors:
Why attend:
Join exclusive sessions where we will discuss:- Success stories from businesses like yours
- Live demos of top data tools (including their new AI features)
- Ideas you can actually use when you get back to work
- Chance to network with others dealing with the same data headaches
You're trying to make sense of your company's data. Or your boss keeps asking about AI and you need to figure out where to start.
Doesn't matter if you use Qlik or not. The stories and ideas work regardless.
Food and refreshments provided.
