Stijn “Stan” Christiaens has a new title at Collibra - Chief
Data Citizen. He joins me on Tech Talks Daily to discuss how
Collibra is getting data and policies ready for a cloud-native
world, ensuring the company complies with growing privacy
regulations, protecting data assets, and more.
We also discuss why the most critical priority for this year is
increasing and maintaining data quality. Over the past
transformative year, Collibra has spent many resources in getting
the business to be digital-first. And he knows that data products
are garbage in, garbage out, so the outcomes of the product, the
user experience, and the smart features all depend on the quality
of the data that feeds them.
I also learn why he’s changed his title and what it means. Collibra
is putting smart data quality controls at various places and how he
plans to organizational data priorities for the rest. We also talk
about the EU’s recent announcement to take control around AI and
how the proposed legislation will strengthen AI update, investment,
and innovation across the EU.
