Presentation: Activate Your Data. Accelerate Business Value – From Raw Data to Active Intelligence
Data continues to grow at astounding rates, creating exciting opportunities for government agencies/departments to improve outcomes, enhance mission execution and create better citizen experiences. But when it comes to generating true value from business data, the differentiator often comes down to how quickly and adeptly you can make the data available but more importantly actionable to those who need it, when they need it, so they can turn that into business value. This session will touch on Qlik’s vision of Active Intelligence and how it can help activate your data to accelerate business value!
Join this session to hear how successful organizations like the NSW Department of Customer Service, Better Regulation Division are utilising their data in an active manner to develop and deliver digital solutions and program strategies to support regulatory business reform in NSW to ensure it continues to provide better community outcomes with data for the citizens of NSW.

Artificial Intelligence brings new approaches for businesses, government agencies, academia and not-for-profits to engage with stakeholders to make more informed decisions. Through the use of Natural Language Processing (NLP) Artificial Intelligence (AI), we are seeing the balance of evidence used for business cases, policies and strategies move away from heavy reliance on numerical calculations to effectively making use of text, stories and communications. Matt Ensor, Business Director at Beca, talks about this change and how it can benefit outcomes for everyone.

Keynote Trust Deficit Panel: Building Public Trust in Government Data Usage – Transparency, Accountability, and Privacy
- We have seen many organisations stake a step back from enhancing analytical capability, and move towards better data management/maintaining data integrity. This has moved them closer to changing the mindset from using data as a reporting warehouse, to using data as an enabler of business decisions. What is the next frontier (in your opinion) of using data as an asset, both for public and private sectors?
- Big Data, not Big Brother! What should the balance be between the need to use potentially sensitive information to enable innovation within Government, and the need to respect the privacy of private citizens?
- How can Open Data go one step further to increase government transparency and improve citizen decision-making?
- How should data ethics inform your policy?
- How can we utilise data to deliver enhanced levels of transparency to the public and all stakeholders?

Presentation: Data Sharing – Getting your Agency in Order
How ready are you for the prospect of the Data Availability and Transparency Act (or DATA) coming into pass? We know data sharing is a key legal and ethical consideration for many CDOs and industry leaders right now.

So when it comes to proposed changes to how public data is managed and used, what do you need to get in order?
