Hari Hara Priya Kannan, chief data scientist and the data talent behind the data-rich columns written by Bernard Salt and occasionally Simon Kuestenmacher.
Hari has a masters degree in data science from RMIT University, and she writes a monthly column for The Australian “Real Commercial” property supplement.
She has participated in conference discussions as both a panellist and a speaker. She has spoken to audiences across Australia on diverse topics including housing and home ownership, business formation, international education, Australian ethnicity, ageing and the need for strategic planning. She prepares bespoke data-based slides for every presentation and delivers a clear and impactful narrative with summary ‘take-outs’ for attendees.
Hari has appeared on a number of property-based podcasts speaking on Australian demographic trends. She speaks on topics that flow from her columns in The Australian newspaper.
Hari is occasionally commissioned by clients to write data-based thought pieces on demographic trends for in-house magazines.
Endota was delighted to have Hari Hara Priya Kannan as a guest speaker at our recent franchisee business forum. As a data scientist at The Demographics Group, Hari combines technical depth with a warm and engaging delivery. Hari’s insights into social, consumer, and generational trends, supported by her analysis of Census data, were both insightful and practical. Hari's ability to translate complex data into meaningful and actionable takeaways for businesses is truly exceptional. We highly recommend her as a speaker and consultant for any organisation looking to gain valuable perspectives on demographic trends and the future of consumer behaviour.
We at the Asian Australian Foundation engaged Hari to present as the keynote speaker and panellist on Wed 22 May 2024 for our annual dinner held at the Arts Centre Melbourne, where she delivered a highly engaging and insightful presentation on the changing demographics of Australia to over 100 guests. Hari spoke clearly, confidently and the audience really enjoyed her presentation and takeaways. Leading up to the event and during the event, Hari was professional, approachable and confident and was able to tailor the presentation around the themes of the event. We would highly recommend Hari for future speaking engagements at any corporate event!
