Tableau Conference 2U Singapore: Growing the Tableau Extension Community.

 

Tableau users around the world are looking for new ways to get more value from their analytics. That was clear during Tableau Conference 2026, and it became even more evident during a recent visit to Singapore.

Infotopics | Apps for Tableau’s Chief Product Officer, Siebe Grijpma, spent several days speaking at Tableau Conference 2U Singapore and the Singapore Tableau User Group, sharing practical demonstrations of Premium Viz Extensions, discussing AI, and meeting members of the Tableau community face-to-face.

Helping Tableau Solution Engineers Unlock More Value

The visit started with a dedicated training session for Salesforce and Tableau Solution Engineers.

The goal was to demonstrate how easy it is to integrate Premium Viz Extensions into existing dashboards and immediately extend Tableau’s capabilities.

Through live demonstrations, attendees learned how Viz Extensions can add functionality such as write-back, planning, KPI management, advanced tables, and interactive applications without changing the way people already work in Tableau.

For many participants, it showed that extending Tableau is straightforward, secure, and immediately valuable.

Bringing Tableau Conference Highlights to Singapore

One of the highlights of Tableau Conference 2U Singapore was a recap of the most impactful sessions from Tableau Conference.

Among the featured presentations was the session originally delivered by Klaus Schulte and Richard van Wijk, which was one of the most popular sessions: Be Amazed by the Value & Usability of Premium Viz Extensions.

 

The session demonstrated how Premium Viz Extensions such as InputTables, WriteBackExtreme, and PowerKPIs help organizations:

  • Increase Tableau adoption

  • Replace spreadsheet-based workflows

  • Empower Excel users with familiar functionality inside Tableau

  • Create interactive analytical applications instead of static dashboards

The session attracted significant interest from attendees looking for practical ways to modernize their analytics.

A Packed Singapore Tableau User Group

The presentation explored how to successfully configure and use Tableau Extensions in real-world environments, with practical examples and live demonstrations.

The audience stayed highly engaged throughout the session, asking questions and discussing how extensions could fit into their own organizations.

Breaking Common Misconceptions

One topic came up repeatedly during conversations with attendees. Many Tableau users still assume that extensions are either difficult to implement or raise security concerns.

The sessions showed the opposite.

Today’s Premium Viz Extensions are designed for enterprise environments, making it possible to safely extend Tableau while maintaining governance and providing users with capabilities that standard dashboards simply cannot offer.

Siebe also shared a preview of the future roadmap, including:

  • AI-powered experiences integrated directly into Tableau workflows

  • Server-side rendering using Tableau Viz Extensions to support larger datasets

  • New intelligent capabilities that make analytics more interactive and actionable

The strong response from attendees confirmed that organizations are actively looking for these kinds of solutions.

Building Stronger Connections with the Tableau Community

While the presentations were an important part of the visit, being present in Singapore mattered just as much.

Meeting customers, partners, and Tableau users face-to-face created valuable conversations that simply don’t happen online. It reinforced our commitment to supporting the Tableau community wherever it is and learning directly from the people using our solutions every day.

Bring These Sessions to Your Community

The enthusiasm in Singapore demonstrated that there’s a growing appetite for practical sessions that help Tableau users get more from their existing investment.

Whether it’s a Tableau User Group, customer event, partner meeting, or internal enablement session, these presentations are designed to be hands-on, practical, and immediately applicable.
