Data Bites #10: Getting things done with data in government

Institute for Government - Un pódcast de Institute for Government

Better use of data is key to more effective government. Across government, teams are doing fascinating work with data. But those projects don’t get the attention they deserve. At this event, the tenth in our series, our speakers presented their data projects in an exciting, quickfire format. Each speaker had eight minutes, followed by eight minutes of questions from the audience. In May we heard from: Tom MacInnes, Chief Analyst at Citizens Advice, on what traffic to their website tells us about what the population were worried about in the first phase of the Covid19 crisis. Eleanor Stewart, Head of Transparency at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, on data as diplomacy. Glen Robinson, National Technology Officer for Microsoft UK, on keeping data safe and the benefits of scale. Terence Eden, Head of Open Technology at NHSX, on why making things open makes them better. This event was chaired by Gavin Freeguard, Programme Director and Head of Data and Transparency at the Institute for Government.
