Dear List, I hope the information will be of interest to you. Stop the Data Rot! Embedding Robust Information Governance 25 February 2009, London www.unicom.co.uk/recordsmanagement BACKGROUND: Embedding robust Information Governance as an integral part of organisational strategy is vitally important in both the public and private sectors. The comparison has been made to using seatbelts in cars - we must change the culture and ensure that correct practices are embedded such that they become the default. The panel of expert speakers presents an insider’s view of the challenges facing both public and private organisations and distils that collective experience into practical know-how on information governance - the future of data protection in a networked world. OBJECTIVES: The key deliverables of this conference are to: Bring fresh perspectives on the role of Information Governance in a fast- moving world; Make you aware of the potential pitfalls of a lack of information governance; Provide authoritative, practical solutions to handling a variety of information governance problems; Refresh your awareness of current legislation surrounding this area; Help you to minimise the risks of future data problems; Give useful advice to avoid damaged reputations and unnecessary costs.
