Digital blogs

We’d love to see you, in person or on social, at our home 1 Angel Square, to hear from Group Digital Services Director, Tom Loosemoore about the cultural challenges and opportunities of being an open organisation.

Designing open practices within any organisation is challenging. Through Co-op Digital, The Co-op is embracing a change in organisational culture and the way that it interacts with the outside world. Open data and the free flow of information is a vital part of this change.

To help this transformation, some of the team responsible for developing Government Digital Service (GDS) have recently joined The Co-op, here in Manchester and Tom Loosemore is one of them.

At this event, with Open Data Manchester, Tom will discuss what it means to become an organisation that embraces the opportunities of openness, how to help your organisation have the confidence and capability to do it and how promoting openness and more intelligent use of data can benefit organisations and the wider community.

Food and refreshments will be provided, book your free ticket here.

If you’re unable to attend, follow @CoopDigital on Twitter for live tweets and live streams on Periscope, which you can find out about, here.
