Objective and The Hatchery are Shifting the Dial to Data-Driven Regulation

Objective are the exclusive sponsor of The Hatchery’s two-day in-person and online conference – Shifting the Dial to Data-Driven Regulation.

The possible impact that data can have on regulatory work is endless, from being able to regulate better, measure impacts, and ultimately deliver better outcomes with insights from data. With a surplus of data and information available to regulators, and industries becoming increasingly digital, regulators need to experiment with data-driven tools to be more agile and explore opportunities for collaboration with other regulators and government bodies for efficient use of resources.

The Shifting the Dial to Data-Driven Regulation conference will provide a platform for regulatory professionals across Australia and New Zealand to share best practice case studies to discuss how regulators can embed effective data strategies, leverage data to navigate risks effectively, uplift their data capabilities, data culture and literacy. In an environment with a surplus of data, it is imperative for regulators to adopt effective data-driven strategies and change the paradigm of being information rich and knowledge poor.
