As everybody attending the Summit London will know, Transport for London plays a critical role in getting you where you want to go. TfL and its predecessor agencies have a strong legacy of using data, even when the “technology” was pen and paper. Increasingly, a 21st Century data approach has become part of its operational practices and an enabler of the services provided by TfL to its customers, as well as across the organisation.
In this session, Lauren will look back at the path data has taken and look forward to what might lie in store for it within such a complex enterprise. She will examine the critical role played by data at historic times for TfL and for London, before considering her own long tenure and how she has maintained focus, freshness and forward-thinking.
