Using a combination of deep domain knowledge and technical expertise, including data science, analytics and software engineering, we collaborate with our clients to unlock the value held within their data, enabling betterinformed business decisions. T
STEMCELL Technologies was launched in 1993 when founder and CEO Allen Eaves needed a way to meet the increasing demands for his standardized, cost-effective cell culture media for growing blood-forming stem cells. At the time, Eaves was a hematologist and cancer researcher heading the Terry Fox Laboratories (TFL) and head of clinical hematology at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. Unsatisfied with commercially available cell culture reagents, Eaves’ research group at the TFL began making their own hematopoietic stem cell culture media using the highest quality materials they could find. Colleagues also wanted to use this media, and Eaves was able to supplement his research funds by selling culture media to other lab groups. Eventually the demand for the media from researchers around the world warranted building a designated clean room for production. The TFL did not have the funding and instead, Eaves was encouraged to purchase the business and create an independent company. Mortgaging his house and receiving a loan from Western Economic Diversification, Eaves was able to build a clean room and STEMCELL Technologies Inc. was born on July 2, 1993. STEMCELL has become the largest biotech company in Canada and continues to reinvest all profits back into developing products to better support the international research community. As of 2017, the company employs more than 1000 people globally, with over one-third of those holding a PhD or MSc, and the majority of employees having a BSc or Engineering degree. A large number of the company’s employees are located in Vancouver, Canada with additional employees and facilities in 11 other countries Departments of Interest: Life Sciences

The Data School www.thedataschool.co.uk/
Over the last five years, the team at The Information Lab has trained thousands of people to use Tableau and Alteryx. Our team includes 16 Tableau certified trainers, three Tableau Zen Masters and one Alteryx Ace – all people who regularly spend time helping others learn these great technologies. Whilst we’ve been developing this training capability, we have watched Tableau and Alteryx achieve spectacular growth – Tableau had less than 100 staff globally when we first partnered with them and today they have over 2000. As Tableau and Alteryx have been growing fast, the largest companies in the UK have been adopting these technologies for increasingly ambitious projects – ambitious in both scale and complexity. As a partner of both Tableau and Alteryx, a key role is to help ensure this momentum continues. The Information Lab is playing a part in this by using our training experience to create the next generation of great data analysts. Departments of Interest: Computing | Mathematics
