Data Forum: Empowering Mission Excellence
Data as the Center of Gravity
Data is a key mission driver. There is no effective AI without good data. ‘Good’ here encompasses all the practices needed to maximize the use of data for the mission. These include data ingest and management, data security, making sense of data through analytics, and secure sharing of data products. Organizations that treat data as an asset rather than an expense are best positioned to unleash its potential. This forum will discuss how best to ensure that data functions as a center of gravity to meet and exceed mission objectives.
The Data Forum this year will be done in collaboration between ACT-IAC and the Data Foundation. Registration is free for government attendees, with a discounted registration of $195 for ACT-IAC industry members.
