The DIN Data Science and Analytics Forum (DSAF) is for those housing providers who want to get maximum value from data and AI and are looking for smarter ways to achieve it. The forum provides the ability to augment and upskill your existing data science and analytics team, and provide specific skilled resources on an as-needed basis.

The forum is delivered by Greenhouse Intelligence in partnership with DIN. Greenhouse Intelligence is an AI consultancy with a strong track record in the housing sector which is led by Andrew Burgess.

This DSAF practitioners’ session is the first of our 2025 series and is targeted at more technical members including data analysts, data scientists and data professionals.

The theme is 'getting to grips with prompt engineering'.

We will explore:

• What is ‘prompt engineering’?
• Zero-shot and few-shot learning techniques
• Using Perplexity and NotebookLM to enhance LLM workflows
• Building your own GPT personas
• Building prompting into your LLM processes (RAG and Fine-Tuning)

He is a Visiting Senior Fellow at Loughborough University and Expert-in-Residence on AI at Imperial College’s Enterprise Lab.

We will also have contributions from members about their own experiences with AI applications.
