International Data and Information Management Conference (IDIMC 2014)

The inaugural ‘International Data and Information Management Conference (IDIMC 2014)’ was held at Loughborough University’s Design School, on 17 September 2014. Dr Sunila Lobo presented her work on how learning about information management across construction projects can be mobilized and embedded in future project practice. It was organized by Loughborough University’s Centre for Information Management in collaboration with the British Computer Society’s Data Management Specialist Group and attracted senior people from industry and academia. The organisations that attended include English Heritage, BBC and Ford. The keynote speeches from Profs. Sue Newell and Jacky Swan as well as a senior executive from Ford and a leading academic from the University of Cambridge were very interesting and interactive. It was envisioned that such events as this would bring together different strands of research and practice, which in combination could make a huge impact on the information society and knowledge-based economy.
