LCR Data Community of Practice – What a waste!

Why waste data is so rubbish
Building on a talk from May’s Show and Tell event, October’s session takes a longer look at one of the UK’s most important and overlooked industries, waste.
We will hear from two speakers who will share why and how accessing good data about waste is such a sticky problem. Our first speaker is Sophie Walker, CEO and co-founder of Southport-based Dsposal, . Our second speaker is Tim Hobbs, CEO of Bartec Municipal Technologies, who works with a number of our local authorities to understand more about what we all throw away.
Important information: This event will take place online via Zoom. We will send out a link to join the session on the morning of the event and 30 minutes before the start time.
Who is the LCR Data Community of Practice?
We are a group of people from across the region’s data ecosystem that work in or are interested in working with data. We have quarterly in-person meet-ups around lunchtime with online events in between. Our events are informal, welcoming and free.
For any questions about this event, please contact Dr Kirsty Styles: kirsty@lcrdcp.org
This event is organised by Open Data Manchester CIC in partnership with the Civic Health Innovation Labs at the University of Liverpool.
