#1 – Let's start this journey

Thank you for being an early-bird subscriber, I'm grateful to have you here! 🙏

My plan is to publish a new issue of my Know What's Next Weekly every week - who could have guessed that? 😂

I had a gazillion of (client) meetings the last years, but I have never run a newsletter before. So, please take it easy with me if things don't work out right away or I screw up - what will happen for sure 🤓

In return, I promise to focus and deliver high quality content that is relevant - all around learning and mastering data & digital. My mission is to help people growing their business or professional career in these fields.

The last two weeks have been super busy for me. I've launched my personal website, launched my personal YouTube channel, and have been busy networking on LinkedIn. Plus my job at @deptagency. I took the weekend relaxed, spent time with my son, and now, I'm ready to rumble again.

I hope you enjoy this first issue of my newsletter. If you want to help me on my mission, feel free to forward this email to colleagues or friends who also work in data or digital, so they can learn or benefit as well.

Have a great week and talk soon,

Chris

The Emerging Architectures for Modern Data Infrastructure
