IRMS21: Information and Data - The Heart of Your Organisation

28-30 November 2021, Birmingham Hilton Metropole

Programme overview

With new technology changing the way organisations and society operate, and with a heightened focus on privacy and transparency, having the right people with the right skills and the right information is vital.

That’s why over three knowledge-filled days we covered the four elements of an effective organisation.

1) Information
Approaches to managing information as a strategic asset, implementing policies across a mobile workforce, rethinking traditional approaches to records management

2) People
Driving culture change across organisations, providing information managers with the skills they need for the future, understanding the social impact of good and bad record keeping

3) Technology
Real-life stories of information-led transformation including in Office 365, assessing the implications of AI, protecting and preserving records in turbulent times

4) Regulation
Keeping up-to-date with new legislation and standards such as E-Privacy, making sense of the implications of Brexit, going beyond what is legal to a focus on what is ethical

We also had a series of case studies from vendors of products and services in various aspects of information and records management.

Through a packed programme of keynotes, workshops, case studies and interactive discussions, as well as our renowned social events, delegates were sure to emerge from the IRMS Conference with the information and inspiration needed to tackle the challenges they face.
