Information is beautiful

Still a chance to join us for a dazzlingly different night out in London on Monday 30th June with Information is Beautiful founder, David McCandless.

Using the data, graphics and stories at the heart of IIB, David will take audiences on a data-driven tour of the universe, sharing the funniest, most insightful and revelatory stories he’s found hidden in the data and numbers surrounding, maybe drowning, us.

“His elegant & often playful infographics bring to life information too complex or abstract to grasp any way but visually”
The Guardian
