Jack is Programme Lead for Data Institutions at the ODI. He is responsible for the strategic direction of the ODI’s work to explore different approaches to data stewardship, leading the delivery of related projects and building partnerships with other organisations.
Jack joined the ODI in July 2014 and has delivered research and advisory projects with startup, multinational corporate and government clients. As a coauthor of Open Enterprise, Open Data Means Business and a number of other papers, he has helped to develop the evidence base for the impact of open data. He has also worked in the ODI’s policy team, to develop, test and communicate its data and technology policy.
Recently, his work has focused on involving the public, patients and other stakeholders in the stewardship of health data, and the flows of data between cities and private sector organisations.
