Beyond Optimization and Operations: Data for People

UBC Data Science Institute

How data can be used for society to build trust, help the public engage in policy, and use data as an act of reconciliation

The Peña Room, Irving K. Barber Learning Centre

<p>A﻿ special talk by Ryan Hum, Chief Information Officer (CIO) and Vice President of Data and Information, Canada Energy Regulator</p><p>Too often organizations focus on utilizing data to optimize their operations, algorithms to sell more to their customers, find special cases, reduce churn, better market products, etc. We believe this approach misses an opportunity to redefine the organization itself. At the Canada Energy Regulator, data projects have helped the organization pursue new lines of work that fundamentally help the organization re-think what is possible...how data can be used for society...to build trust, help the public engage in policy, and use data as an act of reconciliation.</p>
