He is a professorial research fellow at the University of Oxford and a professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Berners-Lee proposed an information management system on 12 March 1989 and implemented the first successful communication between a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) client and server via the Internet in mid-November. He devised and implemented the first Web browser and Web server, and helped foster the Web's subsequent explosive development. He is the founder and director of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), which oversees the continued development of the Web. He co-founded (with Rosemary Leith) the World Wide Web Foundation. In April 2009, he was elected as Foreign Associate of the National Academy of Sciences.

On the show this week we discuss artificial intelligence, the hopes, and opportunities the technology may bring, as well as the challenges and even the risks it presents to governments and above all democracy. This week the United Nations Security Council, operating under the UK presidency, met for the first time to discuss the issue of AI, with UN officials and diplomats alike urging the world to take the emergence of this new technology seriously. Meanwhile in the UK, Prime Minister Rishi Sunak is preparing to host the first global summit on artificial intelligence in the autumn.  Joining Bronwen Maddox on the show to help us understand the enormous implications of this subject are Dr Talita Dias, a Senior Research Fellow with our International Law Programme; Alex Krasadomski, a Senior Research Associate with our Digital Society Initiative; Dr Milly Zimeta, until very recently with the Open Data Institute and writer and journalist Carl Miller.

In this episode, Jason talks to Lisa Allen, the Director of Data and Services at Open Data Institute about how data assurance and trust can create a world where data is used to create a greater impact outside an individual organisation. Lisa also shares her background in data, explains what data trust is, why data should be transparent and how a lack of data trust affects an organisation.

Gavin Starks has founded, funded, and run over a dozen organizations including acting as CEO of the Open Data Institute. He is the founder of Icebreaker One, an independent, non-partisan non-profit with global reach that convenes organizations to understand how best to use data as a continuous flow of evidence that informs action. He was a recent speaker at the DFC Leadership Summit on Technology and Applied Innovation and took time to sit down with Dave to talk about how curiosity, transparency and interoperability are key ingredients of meaningful transformation.

Find out more on our website: https://bit.ly/3pEhF3m In 2016, The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) published a report on the UK's retail banking market. The report found that older, larger banks don't have to compete hard enough to gain customers' business, while newer banks find it difficult to access the market and grow. One of the CMA's recommendations to tackle this problem was open banking. Since 2018, the open banking ecosystem has enabled customers and SMEs to share their current account information securely with third party providers, who use that data to tailor their apps and services to peoples' specific financial circumstances. Speakers: David's role at the OBIE is to lead the growth and development of the open banking ecosystem. His key objective is to facilitate and encourage end user adoption of products and services powered by open banking. This includes all marketing and events, bringing new participants into the directory, and developing effective propositions which allow consumers and businesses to derive maximum benefit from sharing their transactional data. His 25 years in data-driven insight and marketing have seen him work with many leading brands in multiple sectors and countries. In addition to working for some of the largest players in the data world such as Experian, Callcredit and Telefonica, David also ran his own boutique data insight business, Thinkdata, for 5 years before its acquisition by Bertelsmann. Prior to joining OBIE, David spent 3½ years as the Commercial Director at The Open Data Institute where he also led their work on open banking, helping governments and regulators in Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Canada. David regularly speaks on open banking at conferences in the UK and internationally, has co-authored a number of reports on Open Banking, and was interviewed on BBC TV on the day it officially launched in the UK. Originally a classically trained musician, David has a Master's from Cambridge University and an MBA in Marketing. He sits on the board of Open Data Australia, and also as a non-executive director for Boundless, a theatre company for young people. Ever the optimist, he continues to hold a season ticket at Nottingham Forest Football Club. Robert Pay has extensive experience in both professional and financial services. His chief interest is building both business and brand for know-how rich businesses. His roles have included being a Marketing Manager for a "Big Four" banking and securities practice, and a seven year stint as the Global Chief Marketing Officer of leading international law firm, Clifford Chance. He was Head of Marketing at the London Stock Exchange where he was responsible for the marketing launch of AIM, the smaller companies' market, on whose Board he served; he developed a successful marketing campaign aimed at attracting foreign issuers to London; and marketing of introduction of order-driven trading. He then ran the European arm of a US-based professional services consulting firm for several years before moving back in-house as Global Marketing Director of BSI Management Systems where he introduced an NPD process, and refocused the global marketing function on new product development. Immediately prior to relocating to the United States he was the Chief Marketing Officer for European law firm Taylor Wessing, where he worked with Z/Yen to create the Global IP Index.

In the first episode of the second season of the Open Data Institute's Inside Business podcast - the ODI's Learning and Business Development Director, Stuart Coleman, is joined by two self confessed data evangelists, both of whom use storytelling to create a ‘culture' of data in organisations. One even says that business leaders who don't understand the importance of data literacy might as well “pack their bags and leave their desks”. Stuart Coleman, the ODI's Learning and Business Development Director (host) Di Mayze, Global Head of Data and AI at WPP, a creative transformation business (guest) Paul French, former Director of Business Intelligence, Reporting and Visualisation at the Nationwide Building Society (guest).

Steven speaks with Lisa Allen, co-author (together with Deborah Yates) of The little book of data: First steps to your data transformation. The book is full of practical tips and best practices for anyone working with data. The list of lessons draws upon Lisa's many years of experience in various high-profile data roles including Head of Data Management at Defra (UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs), Head of Data at the UK's Ordnance Survey, and now at the ODI (the Open Data Institute). A useful resource for anyone looking to raise their data game, After discussing the book and Lisa's background, the conversation moves to "Data as Infrastructure" and the part data plays in the wider data ecosystem, and how we responsibly share that data. Steven tries, but fails, to avoid ranting about the data rights around the UK postcode system.
