đź“Ť Colonnade Suite, Villa Marina

📆 29 October, 2 PM - 4:30 PM

If you can't attend this workshop, there is also the same session happening on 15 October at 9 AM.

Digital Isle of Man is preparing to launch an innovative new data proposition: The Data Stewardship Foundation. This initiative is a key pillar in Digital IoM’s vision to drive a 'strong, diverse, and sustainable economy,' where the digital sector plays a leading role.

At the heart of this proposition is a new legal entity—the Data Stewardship Foundation—created under the Isle of Man’s foundation laws. The goal? To ensure the responsible, transparent, and sustainable use of both personal and non-personal data. The Foundation will help businesses and governments securely share, manage, and reuse data, all under a rigorous and independent regulatory framework.

Why Attend?

Be among the first to explore how the Data Stewardship Foundation can help organisations tackle today’s most pressing data challenges, from ensuring international data compliance to managing high-risk AI model datasets. We’ll discuss how this new entity offers a safer, more accountable way to handle and govern data in an evolving global landscape.

What We’ll Cover:

1. Latest Research on Data Stewardship

Discover insights from our collaborations with the Open Data Institute (ODI) and other industry leaders, and how these findings will shape the design and implementation of this world-class data stewardship model.

2. Data Best Practices & Regulation

Learn how data best practices are being incorporated into a regulated code of data stewardship, providing a clear framework for organisations aiming to operate in the Isle of Man’s innovative data environment.

3. Industry & Government Engagement

We’ll discuss how to expand the Isle of Man’s reach in the global data market, including ways to engage industry leaders and government bodies in shaping the future of data governance, privacy, and sharing.

Why You Should Get Involved

This workshop isn’t just about learning—it’s about making an impact. Your insights will help refine the Data Stewardship Foundation proposition and inform potential amendments to the Isle of Man’s Foundations Act. By attending, you'll be directly contributing to the future of data governance in the Isle of Man.

Whether you're a tech leader, policy-maker, data expert, or simply passionate about the future of digital innovation, this is a unique chance to help shape a pioneering initiative that will influence how data is used globally.
