Approach
The theme of these roundtables is ‘Data Exploitation’. In particular, we will focus on how government can support businesses to exploit and produce quality data effectively and securely, such that they successfully anticipate, meet and surpass consumer demands on a domestic and a global scale.
The roundtables will be structured around a series of DCMS consultation questions that will identify where government needs to prioritise its strategy and support UK businesses to benefit from the value of data, and enable them to build resilience and prosperity in domestic and international trade.
The discussions will be guided, but not limited to, these questions, and attendees are encouraged to contribute evidence that they believe will most effectively inform the NDS’ People and Economy Objectives.
To ensure there is representation from industries most impacted by data use, the two sectors will be target in these sessions are the ‘Professional Business Services’ and ‘Consumer’.
We will hold these roundtables across the UK – starting in London, and extending to core UK regions (Cardiff, Belfast, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol and Edinburgh). This will ensure that businesses from across the UK are represented and accurately served in the NDS.
For each session, we aim to host around 30 attendees from the private sector - representing SMEs, larger businesses and specialist data/technology companies.
