Data initiatives rarely fail because of a lack of insight. They fail because the narrative around them does not resonate.

This session explores how to tell compelling stories about data as a capability, a practice and a strategic enabler. Drawing on real experiences, it demonstrates how to translate complex or technical topics into clear, human narratives that connect with stakeholders and inspire action.

Having completed this session, you will be equipped with the skills and knowledge to communicate the value of data with greater clarity and confidence, tailor your message to different audiences, and use storytelling to influence decisions, build credibility and drive momentum for data initiatives.

Knowing how to look after your information online is a life skill that we all need.

The ICO recently launched a new campaign – Switched on to privacy – aimed at helping parents and carers of children aged 4-11 years with exactly this.

Join our session with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) to learn about how you can help our children make safer choices online.

Plus, hear about some of the research and data that helped shape the campaign itself. 

Artificial intelligence is transforming sustainability by enabling smarter, data-driven decisions across industries.

As organisations become increasingly data-driven and AI-powered, trust matters more than ever. Customers expect personalised, seamless experiences, but they also expect their data to be handled responsibly, transparently and securely.

In this Lunch & Learn, Sarah Humberstone and Leena Sharma will explore how Lloyds Banking Group is embedding a data-driven culture that balances innovation with responsibility.

The session will explore how organisations can collect, manage and govern data effectively, maintain clear data lineage, and ensure appropriate consent throughout the data lifecycle.

The discussion will also explore how robust guardrails, privacy considerations and data incident management support safe and ethical innovation. As AI and agentic experiences become an increasingly important part of customer interactions, we'll consider how organisations can unlock the value of data and AI while maintaining customer trust and confidence.

Join us for an engaging conversation about the foundations of responsible data use, the opportunities presented by AI, and the critical role that data professionals play in ensuring that innovation delivers positive outcomes for customers, colleagues and society.
