More than 200 people interested in web analytics gathered in Oslo yesterday

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

I had the pleasure to be attending and speaking at the gathering yesterday. WebTrends had invited their clients to a user forum, and more than 200 people showed up.

It’s the first time in Norway that I have seen more than 10 people, all interested in web analytics, in the same room. And this time it was more than 200.

Is this a signal of analytics as a growing market in Norway? Is this a signal of more focus on analytics in Norway and a bigger and better environment for the analytics profession? Or was it just a good marketing effort done by WebTrends?

Probably it’s a little bit of “all of the above”.

I had the pleasure of speaking at this seminar. If you would like to see my 15 minutes pep-talk, greatly inspired by Al Pacino, clik on the link (it’s all in Norwegian).

If you are one of those people interested in learning the basiscs of web analytics, there is a course/seminar beeing held by Nina Furu on February 14.
I will be a guest speaker at this event.
