In 2024, we're partnering with British Columbia Institutional Research and Planning to host a conference inspired by the haunted history of Victoria.

Considered one of the most haunted cities in Canada, Victoria boasts haunted houses, alleys, and hotels.  Our conference venue has a photo of the ghost of the former owner visiting the hotel grounds.

From zombie projects, to deadlines and data ghosts from reporting past, the spirit of data excellence inhabits the IR/IE folks who themselves haunt the hallways of ivy towers.
