The Big Prize

Win a trip to Vegas to compete in the Iron Viz competition at Tableau Conference!
The winner will receive airfare and accommodation in Las Vegas, NV during the 2017 Tableau Conference, a conference pass, and a spot in the 2017 Iron Viz Competition.

The Best Rookie

As Chinese authors are now participating in the contest, we have to say goodbye to the Twitter Crowd Favorite since Twitter is blocked in mainland China.
Instead, we now have a Best Rookie category, for authors who are taking part in Iron Viz for the first time! Judges will decide the winner for this category, and he or she will receive some cool Tableau Swag.
