Across three days Data4Good will explore the new National Data Strategy; how the public sector has harnessed data in the Covid response; and what together this means for data sharing across the public sector in our 'new normal'

With thanks to our Partner ANS for supporting this UKAuthority event

DAY 3 - Friday 16th October, 11:00 to 12:30

Host and moderator: Helen Olsen Bedford, UKAuthority

   

Tom Smith, director, data science campus, Office for National Statistics

 

Bill Mitchell, director of policy, BCS

Public services augmented by algorithm, what could go wrong?: Algorithms in the public sector always work just as they should don’t they? This talk signposts some of the most notable examples of how algorithms have been used to support government policy priorities since COVID-19, why they didn’t work out quite as well as they were supposed to, and what could be done to ensure such unintended consequences are avoided next time

Mark Gannon, director of business change and information solutions, Sheffield City Council

Jay Saggar, data projects manager, LOTI
