Trust me - trust my (open) data: The role of standards in data and data processes

An essential part of persuading people about the benefits of open data is giving them assurance that the data is reliable, of high quality and maintained properly. And that the people responsible for it (and the processes they use) are trustworthy.

Trust in data and data processes (across the whole data spectrum) also has the potential to unlock great value for the economy, society, and the environment, by improving public services and increasing efficiency and effectiveness in business. So what needs to happen next in the data ecosystem to ensure that open data (and data across the spectrum) can be trusted?

Join our panel discussion to understand more about data assurance, and how building trust in data and data practices can support people, organisations, and the wider economy.
