Last week, policymakers and industry leaders gathered at the Houses of Parliament for the official launch of Smart Data Group - a new industry-led organisation aiming to accelerate the rollout of smart data initiatives across the UK, with a particular focus on transforming the energy sector.

In this episode, our Director of Government Relations, Max Austin, reports from the event and speaks with key figures driving the smart data agenda. He interviews the UK’s first Smart Data Minister, former MP Paul Scully, along with Smart Data Group co-founders Richard Newman and Clare Ambrosino, to unpack how the newly passed Smart Data Bill aligns with Parliament’s goals and what it will take to deliver meaningful outcomes for energy consumers and unlock an estimated £27.8 billion in economic growth.

Smart Data Group is a comprehensive delivery organisation that empowers its members to design and implement smart data schemes while shaping and ensuring compliance with future regulatory requirements. By uniting data holders, third-party providers, service providers, regulators, and policymakers, it creates collaborative data-sharing frameworks that drive innovation and trust.
