Presented by: Michel Girard, CIGI
As organizations undertake their digital transformation journeys, they need to put in place appropriate governance guardrails. Michel Girard’s presentation introduces the concept of data value chains including data collection; access and analytics. It then looks at systems and controls that should be considered to facilitate data sharing and reuse while respecting ethical norms and regulatory/ contractual obligations. Concepts such as digital transformation strategies, digital governance policies and data comptrollership will be covered in the presentation
Michel Girard is a senior fellow at CIGI, where he contributes expertise in the area of standards for big data and artificial intelligence (AI). His research strives to drive dialogue on what standards are, why they matter in these emerging sectors of the economy, and how to incorporate them into regulatory and procurement frameworks. He highlights issues that should be examined in the design of new technical standards governing big data and AI in order to spur innovation while also respecting privacy, security and ethical considerations.
