How data shapes our response to crises

Abstract

Though data is everywhere, it is often undervalued and underutilized - that is until disaster strikes. Natural disasters, economic downturns and, most recently, global pandemics have a way of bringing data to the front of people's minds. So, how does data (or lack of it) shape our response to these events? With clients in nearly every industry, data consulting firm InterWorks plays a unique role in helping others address these challenges. In this session, InterWorks Communications Manager Garrett Sauls will draw from the collective experience of the global InterWorks team to paint a broad picture of how different organizations are using data to respond to the current Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. He'll also share some useful resources to help you dive into the data on your own.
