OECD Expert Briefing: Data-Driven Innovation - Implications of Big Data for Growth and Wellbeing

 

 

More data are being generated every week than in the last millennia. As smart devices and the Internet of Things become pervasive, the flows of data will only continue to increase. What can policy-makers do to support innovations around the collection, curation, and use of data, and what can be done to strike the right balance of openness and privacy protection? Join us on Wednesday, November 18th, for an Expert Briefing on the OECD new report, Data-Driven Innovation: Big data for growth and well-being. The report’s lead author will present the OECD’s findings on how data-driven innovation (DDI) can help address social and global challenges – and what challenges can be expected. Joseph Alhadeff, who acts as the Business and Industry Advisory Committee Chair to the OECD Digitial Economy Policy Committee will provide additional comments and reaction.
