One Team. One Direction. One Future.

If you have received an invitation to the Datamine Global Conference 2026, attendance is expected unless previously discussed and agreed with your manager. This is one of the most significant team events of the year, and the value of the week comes from the full global team being present together. If you have a specific situation that may prevent attendance, please speak with your manager at the earliest opportunity.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality. Many passports (including most EU, UK, US, Australian, Canadian, and New Zealand passports) allow visa-free entry to South Africa for short stays. However, you must check this independently based on your specific passport and circumstances. Visit the South African Department of Home Affairs website or contact your nearest South African embassy or consulate. If you need a visa support letter from Datamine, indicate this during registration and contact Anton Clowes.

South Africa requires proof of yellow fever vaccination if you are arriving from or transiting through a country on the yellow fever endemic list. This typically includes parts of Sub-Saharan Africa and Central/South America. If this applies to your routing, you must carry your International Certificate of Vaccination (the "Yellow Card") and it must be valid. Consult your travel doctor or local health authority well in advance of travel, ideally at least 10–14 days before your departure.

Yes. Airport transfer arrangements will be coordinated by the events team. You will be asked to provide your arrival and departure flight details during registration. The events team will consolidate this information and communicate transfer arrangements closer to the event. If your plans change after registering, please update your details or contact Anton Clowes directly.

Yes. The registration form includes a section for dietary requirements, food allergies, and any additional notes for the catering team. Please be as specific as possible. This information will be shared directly with the event catering team to ensure your needs are fully accommodated throughout the week, including all meals and evening events.

A registration deadline will be communicated by the events team. We strongly encourage all delegates to register as early as possible so that logistics, catering, and transfers can be planned effectively. Early registration also helps the events team identify and resolve any travel challenges (such as visa requirements) with adequate lead time.

The conference agenda has not yet been finalised. The full programme will be published on this page and communicated to all registered delegates when it is ready. This website will be updated as information becomes available, so please check back regularly. If you have questions about the programme content, contact Anton Clowes.

No. Accommodation has been arranged centrally for all delegates and will not be collected through the registration form. Room assignments will be communicated by the events team. Please do not contact the venue directly regarding accommodation.

South Africa in late November is late spring in the Southern Hemisphere. Expect warm, sunny weather with daytime temperatures typically between 20–28°C. Smart casual attire is appropriate for conference sessions. Evening events may be slightly smarter. Sunscreen and comfortable footwear are recommended. Conference merchandise (t-shirt) will be distributed on arrival, so please indicate your size during registration.
