MIT ICIQ 2017 OCTOBER 6 - 7, 2017 http://www.iciq.us/2017/index.html

The MIT International Conference on Information Quality (ICIQ) held annually since 1995 is the premier conference in the field of information and data quality. ICIQ attracts researchers and practitioners from around the globe. In 2017 the conference will be held on the campus of the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR) on October 6-7, 2017. UALR is the only university in the United States to offer masters and doctoral degrees in information quality. The UALR Information Quality Graduate Program resides in the Donaghey College of Engineering and Information Technology, which also houses the UALR Institute for Chief Data Officers.

The discipline of Information and Data Quality continues to mature as organizations recognize information to be among their most important assets. This is reflected in the growing adoption of governance programs as a way to assure that information is managed as an asset.

However, an information quality and governance program will not by itself guarantee success. It requires leadership and ownership by business at the executive level. In many data-driven enterprises, this leadership, vision, and strategy reside with the Chief Data Officer (CDO).

For these reasons, the theme of ICIQ 2017 is “Focus on Value and Strategy” Value and strategy from data provisioning, data cleansing, data transformation, and data integration to building an effective data governance program, and investing in IQ education and training, change management, DQ metrics, and information privacy and security. The conference program will feature tracks of research papers, practice-oriented papers, and panel sessions.
