Info: Data governance plays a critical role in helping organizations use data effectively. This presentation will explain what data governance is, touching on the framework and processes as well as how data governance can support academic excellence, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance within a University. The presentation will highlight specifically the evolution of the University of Minnesota’s data governance program.

Info: Most firms’ IG policies are simply not enforced. In an era where data management is becoming an increasing business priority across all of the firm’s business centers, this is not a tenable position.

In this session, Rob Mattern will walk through recent industry data that zeroes in on the top 5 bottlenecks blocking firms from implementing their IG policies. From widespread cultures of “exception granting” to an industry-wide lack of strategy to contain data sprawl, this session reviews highlights from Mattern’s 2024 IG Survey which shows that while 94% of firms have an IG policy of some kind in place, enforcement is weak and the key culprit that robs firms of a defensible program.

Info: Hennepin County initiated a massive countywide project to assess the disposition of 32,857
boxes located in onsite and offsite storage in 2022. The boxes are reviewed and processed for
destruction, retention, or imaging. The Hennepin County backfile conversion project supports
the vision of Future Ready Hennepin by converting paper records to digital and formalizes a
digitization process going forward. The project, and its results, will significantly reduce costs,
reduce our carbon footprint, and increase efficiency and responsiveness related to records.
