TADSummit EMEA Americas 2021 Keynote: Data isn’t just valuable, it’s going to save the planet!
Miles Cheetham, Co-Chair Open Energy Steering Group, developing standards-based marketplaces for environmental & financial data.
How Open Banking proved how we could share data securely at scale (and we’ve now realised that it’s one use case of many)
Open Energy showed how the approach and infrastructure is transferable to other sectors (and that interoperability across sectors is possible)
What else is possible? (when you start thinking about what you can do with data, you realise the wealth of use cases and problems you can solve)
How data will lead us to better decisions (informing corporate and consumer behaviour, investments/use of capital etc.)
What we need to do to make this real? (what government, treasuries, regulators and industry need to do)

Open Banking…Energy…Telecom
Miles Cheetham, Developing the data infrastructure to help deliver a net-zero future
Shared data has the potential for huge economic, societal and environmental benefits. Open Banking has shown the way, and now the opportunities for other sectors are becoming clearer. With governments and regulators seeking to stimulate innovation, there are common issues becoming clearer.
So what has been learned in the banking and energy sector? And how can we apply this to telecom?
Miles Cheetham, former Head of Propositions at Open Banking – with a deep telco background – reviews what has been learned, explores the opportunities and asks what this means for Open Telecom.

Guidelines for governance of data sharing in agri foodSjaak Wolfert
Big Data is becoming a new asset in the agri-food sector including enterprise data from operational systems, sensor data, farm equipment data, etc. Recently, Big Data applications are being implemented to improve farm and chain performance in agri-food networks. Still, many companies are refraining from sharing data because of fear of governance issues such as data insecurity, or lack of privacy or liability, among others. To overcome such barriers for developments with Big Data, this paper aims at: 1) analysing governance issues in agri-food networks, and 2) introducing a set of guidelines for data-sharing. Based on a literature review, a framework for analysing agri-food networks was developed, with internal governance factors (efficiency, effectiveness, inclusiveness, legitimacy & accountability, credibility and transparency) and external governance factors (political, economic, social, technological, legal and environmental factors). The framework contributes to development of a set of draft guidelines. Accordingly, for each factor, the guidelines address issues, best practices and lessons learned from other projects and initiatives. The approach developed in this paper creates a baseline for possible future developments of Big data in terms of 1) upscaling of the guidelines at a global level, 2) refining and fine-tuning of the guidelines for context specific agri-food networks, and 3) contributing to solving governance challenges in data sharing. In the future, the relevance of Big Data in the agri-food domain is expected to increase, and so are the contributions of this approach.

Africa Information Highway Live Exchange #Session 7
8 October 2021
The AIH Live Exchange between the Africa Information Highway Team, partners and countries is a free monthly webinar hosted by the African Development Bank to discuss topics related to government data and statistics. This webinar series is the main platform for countries to share their experiences and best practices around open data including using their Open Data Platform of the AIH.
This session is co-organized with the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) which is a mission-driven Research and Technology Organization (RTO) that develops advanced technologies and delivers innovative products and services to industry and society. These innovations can also be used to solve several societal challenges, particularly in the areas of the environment, security, education and culture, sustainable development, as well as the efficient use of resources.
Official statistical data are recognized as high-value datasets for the society and economy, to enrich research, inform decision making or develop new products and services. The use of these authoritative data sources contributes to building a society with more empowered people, better policies, more effective and accountable decision-making, greater participation and stronger democratic mechanisms.
Official statistics are produced to be used and re-used to make an impact on society through a higher degree of openness and transparency while ensuring confidentiality and, at the same time, providing equal access to information to citizens.
The value of data lies in its use and re-use. In this interactive webinar, you will learn new techniques to improve the use and re-use of your statistical data, going beyond the provision logic and adopting the ecosystem mindset. You will:
● Sharpen your capacity at identifying and engaging users and re-users and stakeholders (data ecosystem mapping)?
● Effectively tackle technical and organizational barriers to stimulate data use and re-use?
● Smartly orchestrate a self-sustainable data ecosystem to increase the impact of statistical data.
This session is an opportunity for Regional members countries to '' Sharpen their skills in making data used and re-used by developing an ecosystem mindset to effectively build sustainable community of users around their Open Data Platform thus promoting transparency and better decision-making”

¿En qué se parece el Gobierno del Dato a un parque de atracciones?Denodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3Ab9gYq
Imagina llegar a un parque de atracciones con tu familia y comenzar tu día sin el típico plano que te permitirá planificarte para saber qué espectáculos ver, a qué atracciones ir, donde pueden o no pueden montar los niños… Posiblemente, no podrás sacar el máximo partido a tu día y te habrás perdido muchas cosas. Hay personas que les gusta ir a la aventura e ir descubriendo poco a poco, pero cuando hablamos de negocios, ir a la aventura puede ser fatídico...
En la era de la explosión de la información repartida en distintas fuentes, el gobierno de datos es clave para garantizar la disponibilidad, usabilidad, integridad y seguridad de esa información. Asimismo, el conjunto de procesos, roles y políticas que define permite que las organizaciones alcancen sus objetivos asegurando el uso eficiente de sus datos.
La virtualización de datos, herramienta estratégica para implementar y optimizar el gobierno del dato, permite a las empresas crear una visión 360º de sus datos y establecer controles de seguridad y políticas de acceso sobre toda la infraestructura, independientemente del formato o de su ubicación. De ese modo, reúne múltiples fuentes de datos, las hace accesibles desde una sola capa y proporciona capacidades de trazabilidad para supervisar los cambios en los datos.
En este webinar aprenderás a:
- Acelerar la integración de datos provenientes de fuentes de datos fragmentados en los sistemas internos y externos y obtener una vista integral de la información.
- Activar en toda la empresa una sola capa de acceso a los datos con medidas de protección.
- Cómo la virtualización de datos proporciona los pilares para cumplir con las normativas actuales de protección de datos mediante auditoría, catálogo y seguridad de datos.

How are we Faring with FAIR? (and what FAIR is not)Carole Goble
Keynote presented at the workshop FAIRe Data Infrastructures, 15 October 2020
https://www.gmds.de/aktivitaeten/medizinische-informatik/projektgruppenseiten/faire-dateninfrastrukturen-fuer-die-biomedizinische-informatik/workshop-2020/
Remarkably it was only in 2016 that the ‘FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship’ appeared in Scientific Data. The paper was intended to launch a dialogue within the research and policy communities: to start a journey to wider accessibility and reusability of data and prepare for automation-readiness by supporting findability, accessibility, interoperability and reusability for machines. Many of the authors (including myself) came from biomedical and associated communities. The paper succeeded in its aim, at least at the policy, enterprise and professional data infrastructure level. Whether FAIR has impacted the researcher at the bench or bedside is open to doubt. It certainly inspired a great deal of activity, many projects, a lot of positioning of interests and raised awareness. COVID has injected impetus and urgency to the FAIR cause (good) and also highlighted its politicisation (not so good).
In this talk I’ll make some personal reflections on how we are faring with FAIR: as one of the original principles authors; as a participant in many current FAIR initiatives (particularly in the biomedical sector and for research objects other than data) and as a veteran of FAIR before we had the principles.
The event presents real-life examples from European organisations that have used the Rulebook for Fair Data Economy to develop data-driven business. The online event was organised on 3 March 2021 by Sitra.

Supercharging CPaaS Growth & Margins with Identity and Authentication
Aditya Khurjekar, GM Prove Protocol
Mobile networks were designed for communication, yet commerce is driving most of the demand for mobile connectivity today
The growth segments in today’s digital economy benefit from CPaaS APIs for Identity verification, authentication, proofs & claims
Commerce-enabling CPaaS APIs rely on the intrinsic security of mobile network and devices
Deterministic (rather than probabilistic) authentication drastically reduces fraud, hence increases margins
The secure element in mobile devices has been under-utilized by carriers
FIDO standard presents a horizontal application opportunity for hardware based (deterministic) authentication
Authenticated ID verification is key to secure yet seamless digital onboarding, leading to financial inclusion & consumer protection
The needs of the new crypto-based (web3) economy can also be satisfied with smart CPaaS offerings that preserve anonymity/pseudonymity
The imminent ubiquity of eSIMs is timely to fight fraud in the increasingly sophisticated digital & crypto-enabled economy
It’s time for a purpose-built global payments network!

Ben Waymark, Chief Technology Officer, Webio.
CPaaS players are doing the low hanging, simple conversations via their conversational design and plug in’s to the messenger layer, but what are they really hoping to achieve, and should they be aimed at the developer community?
No-code low-code configurable conversational customer support have done really well by integrating with customer ticketing, and integrating other platforms into their workflows. Kustomer.com was bought for a billion, something is going right there.
Conversational experiences are becoming part of the digital customer experience. What does this look like and why might this be important for other companies to understand?

Time to ditch the ‘dumb-pipe’ – reinventing the core mobile network, to put developers first.
Mike Bromwich, CEO / Co-Founder Stacuity & Tim Dowling, Co-Founder Stacuity
The emergence of public cloud has revolutionized the way developers can muster and deploy virtual infrastructures, as and when required.
In contrast, mobile networks are still rigidly defined and protected by operators, who are unable or unwilling to offer such control and flexibility.
As a result, the mobile network operates as little more than a dumb-pipe (unless you have lots of patience and deep pockets).
Addressing this problem requires a different approach, not just the creation of a thin façade over legacy network elements.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck

and governance
Hi, I’m Miles Cheetham and I today I want to share an idea with you that’s taken about 5 years to fully form. It started with Open Banking, where I led the customer and proposition team for 4 of those years and matured with my colleagues working on Open Energy earlier this year.
But the possibilities of data, to me at least, is like one of those tunes that gets into your head - an earworm – and I’ve been lucky enough to work with some fabulous free-thinking and innovative people . So I’ll fill you in.
So it all started for me in a pretty anonymous office in London, close to Tower Bridge and the Tower of London. It’s nice to see those places every day but the motivation was to create something transformational. And we did – today there are over 3 million users of Open Banking, using third party services that draw directly from your bank data and allow you – SECURELY, and with your CONSENT – to budget, prove affordability for a loan or mortgage (or bond, if you prefer), forecast your cashflow, draw down a % of your earnings early if the month is longer than your salary, sweep money away for a rainy day, pay directly from your account and so on.
It’s become a fast growing global phenomenon and is happening worldwide today. It promises to usher in a new era of fintechs, and in the UK there are around 350 live and about the same again applying for regulatory authorization or in the sandbox
And so we thought why can’t we do the same thing for energy.
Some of you may have heard me talking about Open Energy last year. Over the last 12 months it’s made huge strides….
Energy got some major structural changes underway as it moves from a highly centralized system to a very decentralised one. PV solar panels on your roof, heat pumps, Evs, it’s all changing. No more gas boilers. No more petrol and diesel cars. A huge, transformational shift.
So we saw the potential both for industrial scale data – that’s sub stations, transmission networks and the like, right down to household and vehicle level. And of course there are issues like data privacy – strictly covered by GDPR in Europe – to throw into the mix.
So we looked at it in the context of an Innovate UK competition. We were able to create and analyse our hypothesis, looking at what mapped from data sharing in financial services over to the energy sector. We looked at user and market needs, policy, regulatory requirements, operational requirements and of course technical feasibility.
And, by and large, it mapped. We were able to make appropriate amendments to policy and participant management, but the underlying architecture was a good fit and technically required little modification. So much so, that interoperability between fintech and energy tech companies will be straightforward.
So we built an alpha prototype. It looked very much like it was going to work, and we convinced the competition judges who awarded the funding to build a beta an onboard real users to access real data. We knocked out some big brand names by the way, which is always very satisfying!
So now it’s in pilot and we expect the regulation that’ll make this fly to be enacted in 2022.
It’s an open standard, built on strong use cases and a good understanding of the commercials – and it’s a fraction of the cost of Open Banking, because we learned so much. An order of magnitude cheaper.
It’s the key to unlock the data we need to balance and manage energy production and consumption at a national, local and household level. We expect it to be a huge value driver, and to further hasten decentralization and decarbonization.
Decentralisation Decarbonisation Digitalisation Democratisation
With my colleagues at Icebreaker One, we asked “what else is possible?” (when you start thinking about what you can do with data, you realise the wealth of use cases and problems you can solve)
Because we’re interested in influencing government policy, we started by thinking about the Prime Minister’s - that’s Boris - ambitious ten-point plan for a green industrial revolution which will create and support up to 250,000 British jobs.
We saw that the applications of Smart Data, through which consumers and small businesses get access to their own and product related data via a third party, in the rollout of the ten-point plan are extremely varied and cut across a wide range of sectors of the economy.
Furthermore, we saw that policies that enable and promote the wider use of data, for example through easier discoverability and access to datasets beyond individual consumer or small business, will provide very significant benefits.
Let me explain
We looked at over 40 use cases in a 4 week sprint to see what we could learn. These were identified in order to illustrate the key issues faced across these sectors, the types of solutions that could be achieved, and to allow consideration of the implications for government policy.
We weren’t trying to drive out the detail, but to identify the commonalities, interdependencies and preconditions that must exist to allow us to use data to solve some of the critical problems that we can see.
Our analysis included a scoring exercise in order to provide an initial view on the specific use cases that could be further evaluated as high impact and relatively low complexity to implement. Top of the list were:
Smart energy households – using data to manage energy consumption efficiently – so things like when to charge your car, and when to release energy back into your home from its battery to reduce your consumption at peak hours
Supply chain analysis, to genuinely understand carbon footprint from the ground to the consumer, all the way through
Building data – how does a building perform – important when you’re aiming to be net zero by 2050 and 80% of your building stock will still be in use
Local authorities retrofitting a community and needing to understand the impact on the local energy system. What will EV charge points and home heat pumps do to sub-station headroom?
And then there were things like understanding water risks and quality, traceable food, use of herbicides and pesticides, rewilding, the list goes on.
You get the picture – these are just a few.
And then there are increasing demands on business to report on their impact. Measuring the things I’ve just mentioned.
Opening up access to data in this way will support implementation of TCFD (Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures) and the associated taxonomy. This is the framework for financial reporting in relation to climate change to support changing behaviour towards Net-Zero targets. In November 2020, the UK Government announced its intention to make TCFD-aligned disclosures mandatory across the economy by 2025, with a significant portion of mandatory requirements in place by 2023. This represents a significant step forward and an opportunity for the UK to lead in understanding and disclosing the climate risks associated with a firm’s business model. These disclosures are a vital sign of progress not only in terms of making climate risk exposure data available to the financial sector (lenders, investors and insurers) but also embedding in every single firm across the economy a true culture of understanding climate impact and climate risk in their businesses. However, in order for the data to be usable at scale as a driver towards greener businesses and investments, it will need to be standardised in terms of base assumptions and inputs as well as format of outputs, accessible, and machine readable.
This will ensure that economic activities are labelled as green only if they truly contribute to science-based goals to fight climate change. It will be essential that “green” finance becomes the norm, and not (as at present) just about a suite of green products or financial instruments that can be verified as such. Sustainability must be embedded and green principles extended into every corner of the financial markets infrastructure.
So here’s the change theory.
Data will lead to better decisions, informing corporate and consumer behaviour, and ultimately in our investments and use of capital
For example, financial markets factor in market and credit risk already on a large scale. This is not the case yet for climate risk, which is increasingly seen as introducing the type of systemic risk that can precipitate a financial crisis.
However, climate risk can be priced in to the same extent if data is available, accessible and standardised within a defined reporting regime. In practical terms this means moving beyond purely publishing data in annual reports or company websites, or non-machine-readable formats, and ensuring that objective reporting (rather than subjective) is consistently applied. It means adoption of standardised, reliable, consistent machine-readable data, available via APIs and accessible through a well governed trust framework. This is entirely achievable, as it already exists in Open Banking and is developing rapidly under Open Energy.
This would revolutionise financial decision making and prove to be a major lever of change for transition to a fully green economy, while stimulating widespread economic growth in services consuming the data.
Decision makers would understand their exposure to climate risk, and the consequences that arise from raised temperatures, more frequent extreme weather events and the associated systemic threats. Institutions that can clearly demonstrate that they understand climate change risk and have adopted mitigating practices or strategies as a result will therefore ultimately achieve a competitive advantage through greater certainty and lower overall risk in the investments they make and the initiatives they adopt.
This will in turn unlock the ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) funding that currently has more capital available than opportunities to invest, because the impact of the investment will be clearer and the risk better understood and priced for. This will drive a transfer of capital from poor practices towards good practices.
What we need to do to make this real? Remember, we started by asking what government, treasuries, regulators and industry need to do..
We believe that governments should provide the top-down policy and regulatory framework that maximises the potential for data to solve our problems and realise green growth. This is beginning to happen organically, albeit sector-by-sector.
If well implemented, this would “uncork” data across sectors and result in accelerated growth for businesses and green economy initiatives.
In order to achieve this growth we must
Creating the legal and regulatory framework that:
Encourages organisations to share and consume data;
Promotes investment in the infrastructure required;
Mandates key aspects such as types of essential data, taxonomies, standards and governance.
Ultimately, enhancing national data infrastructure to support widespread cross-sector data sharing.
And what kind of policy stuff? Well,
Leverage the power of the financial sector
Provide tax incentives
Targeted spending and grants
Regional incentives and investment
Green Economy Challenges targeted at priority issues
Digital Twins
Harness industry, universities and government – we see a great example in GOFCOE
