After more than a decade in the Tableau ecosystem, The Information Lab is proud to be sponsoring Tableau Conference 2026.
As a long-time Tableau partner, The Information Lab has worked with hundreds of organizations to implement, scale, and get real value from their data. Along the way, the team has built one of the strongest Tableau communities in the world, with more Tableau Visionaries, Hall of Famers, and Ambassadors than any other company. That same commitment shows up in the work shared with the broader DataFam through blogs, YouTube content, and free training webinars.
This year at TC26, the focus is simple: helping organizations understand their data fitness level.
At the booth in Agentforce City, attendees can take a quick five-minute Data Fitness Test designed to assess how effectively data is being used today and where there is room to grow. It’s a fast way to get a clearer picture of strengths, gaps, and next steps. There will also be a limited run of exclusive swag available throughout the week.
Planning to be at TC? Schedule time to meet with the team here.
Beyond the booth, The Information Lab team will be leading several sessions at conference, covering everything from AI and Tableau MCP to new ways of turning insights into action. These sessions are built to challenge how data is typically used and to show what’s possible when it becomes part of everyday decision-making.
Don't miss these sessions!
