Q&A session with our data experts

About this event

We know from our work with the public sector that a lot of teams have many questions around data, including how to use it and share it safely.  

We’re bringing some of our data experts together in this online event to share their thoughts on some of our most asked data-related questions, from synthetic data, to data culture and data sharing and profiling. 

We’ll be covering:

  • What is the main reason why a lot of public sector data remains unutilised? Skills? Tools? Ways of working? 
  • If you have a lot of different data sets and want to gain insight from them, what approach would you recommend?
  • Is working with synthetic data exclusive to data scientists or are there opportunities for other data professionals to gain these skills?

Register today to catch up on the recording.
