Event Overview

A code-first evening event designed for technical digital analysts, implementation specialists, and data engineers. Explore real-world solutions in tagging, tracking, cloud infrastructure and analytics engineering shared by those building and deploying them.

Expect hands-on lightning talks, expert keynotes, and curated peer discussions focused on practical problem-solving and advanced implementation techniques. This is not a strategy event, it’s for those working in the detail.

You’ll walk away with actionable insights, new technical peers, and a fresh look at what’s possible when analytics meets engineering.

Analytics for AI Agents: From Pageviews to Prompts

Mark Edmondson—O’Reilly author of Learning Google Analytics turned GenAI engineer—shares his journey from GA4 to AI observability. He’ll show the technical parallels (sessions→traces, events→tool calls), demo real agent traces from his Multivac platform, and explore what’s coming: AI referrals, browser agents, MCP bypassing the web entirely.

The analytics concepts transfer. The data is richer. And the skills in this room have never been more valuable.

Agentic Lead Enrichment & Attribution: Turning CRM Leads into High-Value, Revenue-Attributed Segments

Going through leads one by one manually is a huge bottleneck that causes high-value opportunities to get lost in the noise. In this session, I’ll show how we built an enrichment pipeline to automate lead qualification and ensure valuable leads are prioritized.

I’ll also walk through our lead attribution setup, where we connect GA4 behavioral data with the enriched CRM leads and revenue to identify which segments actually convert into high-value customers.

Serverside Data Enrichment: Turning CRM Insights into High-Performance Marketing Signals

Data enrichment is the “secret sauce” of server-side tracking, yet it remains under-utilized. Most brands settle for basic web data, but the real power lies in your CRM. Discover how to use the Google Cloud Platform to enrich marketing signals in real-time with backend data for better cost-efficiency.

I’ll share a low-tech approach compatible with any system—no complex APIs required—using BigQuery, Firestore and sGTM to turn your “offline” insights into a competitive marketing advantage.

Serge Shkvarnytskyi (PL)

Partnerships at Stape.io

Serge Shkvarnytskyi is Head of B2B and Partnerships at Stape (stape.io), a server-side tracking platform used by agencies and in-house teams to build more reliable measurement and data flows. Stape helps organisations run and manage server-side setups, giving teams more control over what data is collected, how it is routed, and how it can be enriched before being sent to analytics and advertising platforms. This enables stronger governance, better data quality, and more resilient tracking in a privacy-first environment.

Serge brings extensive experience in partnerships, account development, and end-to-end sales across international markets. Prior to Stape, he worked in partner-led growth roles and led teams supporting complex customer journeys. At AnalyticsDev.net, Serge represents the partner and ecosystem side of modern analytics engineering, focusing on how organisations and agencies operationalise server-side tracking successfully.

Server-side tracking: From audit to reporting

This presentation covers the full journey of server-side tracking: from auditing your current setup to delivering reliable, actionable reporting. You’ll learn how to identify data gaps, reduce risks, and build a robust server-side architecture that improves accuracy, privacy compliance, and performance.

With Stape as the core platform, we’ll show how to implement end-to-end server-side tracking, from checking the website to seeing real-time uplift.

Using end-to-end testing to verify tracking implementation on websites

Peter will give a tour of an example setup of the end-to-end testing framework Playwright, which scans random pages on a website to check for the implementation of tracking on each one, ending up with a summary report containing further details. This session will give you an introductory idea of how to start doing this yourself. No slides, only setup and code.

The dark GCP Cloud behind my Google Sheets apps (Piwik Pro Manager & Adobe Analytics Component Manager)

Piwik Pro Manager and the Adobe Analytics Component Manager are popular applications to scale the management of Analytics tools. Both use Google Sheets as their “frontend”, but there is much more behind them than just Google AppScript – because AppScript has many shortcomings (timeout limits, scalability etc.). In this session, we look at the various GCP components in the “backend”, especially the interplay of Firestore with Cloud Run Functions (Python). This could inspire you to get started with your own Google-Sheets-based app.

With a background leading data activation and engineering at nemlig.com, he brings hands-on experience across cloud platforms, data warehousing, streaming and batch pipelines, and enterprise marketing ecosystems. At AnalyticsDev.net, Martin shares a practitioner’s view on turning modern data infrastructure into real activation and measurable impact.

Marketing Analytics Jumpstart: From GA Events to ML Predictions & Back

Most analytics engineers stop at the data warehouse. This session doesn’t. We’ll walk through a real MAJ deployment — Terraform infrastructure, Dataform feature engineering on GA4 and Google Ads exports, Vertex AI ML pipelines for propensity and LTV modelling, and activation back into GA4 via Measurement Protocol. You’ll leave with a clear picture of what a fully closed, code-first marketing data stack looks like in production.

Olga Safonova

Olga Safonova is a director-level product leader with 20 years in enterprise tech, currently building GovTech products at Tieto for 500,000+ users.

Building the BigQuery A/B Analyzer: What Broke, What Mattered, What Worked

We launched a new page. Is it actually performing better? That question sounds simple, but the analysis usually ends up as one-off SQL, manual checks, and inconsistent methods. In this talk I’ll show what I learned from building BigQuery A/B Analyzer: From the technical part to the uncomfortable reality of shipping a tool people may use to make expensive decisions. This is a talk about real implementation trade-offs, choices, mistakes, and not experimentation theory.
