Becoming an Alteryx ACE last year was not enough to satiate Ben’s appetite for technical excellence and given how well the two technologies fit together, this year he’s set his sights on Databricks. It hasn’t taken long for people to notice.
Analytics leaders from across the UK joined Alteryx & Partners at the McLaren Thought Leadership Centre in June, with Chris on hand to deliver one of the primary sessions on the technical track.
Chris showcased the important work that Bulien have been delivering across public & private sectors, helping organisations transform their data & analytics using the latest generative AI technologies with Alteryx postioned perfectly as the data clearinghouse.
After an adrenaline-fueled showdown of speed, skill, and serious data chops, Owen has taken the checkered flag as the 2025 Alteryx Grand Prix Champion!
From the first dataset to the final workflow, “The OC” delivered a performance worthy of legend. Congratulations, Owen, your name is now etched in Alteryx Grand Prix history!
Shout out to all the amazing finalists who made this one of the most thrilling Grand Prix events yet.
We were at Twickenham Allianz Stadium for HR Connect Spring 2025.
HR Connect invites executive leaders and experts, from the world of HR & Finance, to a three-day targeted at addressing business challenges through technology.
As silver sponsors, Bulien spoke to enterprise businesses from across Europe on how our Alteryx-enabled HR Blueprint can provide massive time savings in data aggregation and reporting for human resources workloads.
Bulien are delighted to announce that we’ll be a Gold Sponsor at the Alteryx Analytics Summit 2025, which will be held in the McLaren Thought Leadership Centre. We’ll be inviting an exclusive gathering of 120+ analytics leaders at the Analytics Summit UK 2025, with spaces extremely limited.
This flagship event brings together analytics leaders and champions who shape the future of their organizations with data and analytics. Expect a day of innovation, insights and inspiration on all things data and AI.
Bulien & Alteryx were at the Institute of Civil Engineers for the Public Sector Data & AI Summit 2025, and what a venue it was.
It was great to speak to public sector leaders about the use of AI in (specifically within public office) and safely unlocking the benefits of new AI technology to improve public services and citizen experience. Advances in artificial intelligence and other data-driven technologies like Alteryx have huge potential for public good and have already begun to tackle some of the biggest challenges facing the public sector today.

We could not be prouder for our apprentices this year with both Owen (L) and James (R) completing apprenticeships in the last few months.
Owen achieved a Merit in L7 Digital and technology solutions specialist (integrated degree) whilst James achieved a Distinction grade in L4 Data Analyst. James has already started his L5 Data Engineering Apprenticeship – let’s see another distinction, sir. No pressure!
Thanks to QA Apprenticeships & Newcastle University.
Congratulations, gentlemen. A tremendous result.
Mark & Chris were down in Darlo at the Darlington Economic Campus for a panel discussion on tech-led productivity & industrial strategy.
Chaired by Rose Simnett (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology), the panel explored key actions around the industrial strategy, digital inclusion, and the AI action plan.
In the latest episode of the Alter Everything Podcast, host Megan Bowers converses with George Salmon, a data consultant at Bulien. George shared his story of how he became Alteryx Advanced Certified in just 23 days!
Hear George provide valuable tips for upskilling and preparing for Alteryx certifications, including the use of interactive learning paths, weekly challenges, and community resources. George discusses his strategies, the importance of the Alteryx community, and his current projects at Bulien.
Two new recruits join the Bulien ranks – we’re delighted to welcome Financial & Computational Maths Graduate, George Salmon (R), and Computer Science Graduate, Dylan Bell (L) to the team. Photographed with Rhys Cooper (M), Data Science Graduate.
Both George & Dylan became Alteryx Advanced Certified in their first month!
It is with absolute pleasure that we congratulate our very own Ben Stringer on becoming an Alteryx ACE.
Ben’s passion (obsession?) with problem solving and dedication to answers have both lent themselves very well to Alteryx and it is no surprise to anyone that he joins the Class of 2024 ACEs. He’s a huge asset to both our internal team and our customers.
Ben joins Chris McEleavey & Owen Coyle as ACEs at Bulien. Huge congratulations everyone.
Bulien are delighted to have been nominated in an extremely tough category – Growth Explosion. Fingers crossed, team!
Towards the end of September, Bulien & Alteryx sponsored Healthcare Excellence Through Technology 2024 in London. Chris Howarth (L) from Alteryx & Chris McEleavey (R), Technical Lead at Bulien, both had a fantastic time illustrating the power of automated ML & analytics to the healthcare audience.
At the same time as HETT, David was in Liverpool attending the Labour Party Conference together with the UK Tech Cluster & Dynamo North East.
As an approved supplier on the Big Data & Analytics Framework (RM6195), Bulien were invited to sponsor The Home Office’s Security & Policing (S&P) Event 2024 at Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre. David & Mark were joined by key members of the Alteryx Public Sector team: Jo Ludlam, Alex Bough & Gary Wilson.
Bulien hit the not insignificant sales milestone of $1 million new business in a calendar year to become an Alteryx Premier Partner!
In December 2023, Bulien agreed to sponsor both the Mens & Womens 1st teams of Durham City Hockey Club – they were even kind enough to give us our own jerseys!
Alteryx Inspire went on a World Tour in 2023 and Bulien were on hand to sponsor the London leg.
The OC (Owen Coyle) and Chris McEleavey were on stage numerous times at Alteryx Inspire 2023 in Denver, Colorado.
It was fantastic for Bulien to be nominated in two categories but to win Corporate Project of the Year was truly terrific.
Congratulations to the whole team!
Bulien were ecstatic to sponsor Alteryx Inspire in Amsterdam this month. What a terrific event – just don’t ask about the ferry journey over!
