What’s new in data technologies and how are data strategies evolving in 2022?
This year has shown that unlocking the power and value of data and being data driven is key to organisations across both the public and private sectors. Organisations are increasingly looking to data, and data driven technologies, to help them make informed business decisions that help them remain relevant to their customers and communities. This opening session will explore the latest developments in data driven technologies and discuss how these tools and solutions can support businesses this year and beyond.
Value Stream Management as a tool for helping organisations to reach the full potential of their investment in data strategies
Move beyond migration - Unlocking the value of your data in the Cloud
For many organisations, unlocking the full value of data is often the missing piece of cloud transformation. This session explored best practice for data strategies in cloud computing and how businesses are moving beyond ‘lift and shift’ to become truly cloud native.
How organisations can better leverage the value in their data
As organisations look to leverage their data through commercialisation, optimisation and sharing – it is crucial that data strategies facilitate the right balance between opportunities and risks. Too often organisations over-value the risks or underestimate the benefits of data. This panel will explore a range of different perspectives on how to build a successful data strategy, from looking at why we value data to how to protect and extract that value in practical terms.
