Open Innovations (previously ODILeeds)

A project from North England to work in a #radicallyopen way to help us all define, measure, show &amp; illustrate what levelling up means.

<a href="https://rss.org.uk/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">The RSS</a> recently <a href="https://rss.org.uk/news-publication/news-publications/2021/general-news/rss-response-to-treasury-inquiry,-an-equal-recover/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">responded to the Treasury Committee inquiry on equal recovery post-pandemic,</a> expressing concern that current data is not up to the job and calling for a rethink of what data the government is collecting.Open Innovations together with The Royal Statistical Society are leading on a project to explore 'levelling up' from a Northern perspective, by working in the open, inviting discussion and suggestions, and developing a prototype visualisation with open data at its foundation.We launched this project on the 8th December 2021 with a kick off interactive live event where we showcased talks from speakers including leading economist Andy Haldane.On 19th January 2022 we held an online collaborative working session where attendees brought resources, work, offered suggestions etc. We asked for contributions to the concept of 'levelling up' and what data you think demonstrates it best. We recorded the session and <a href="https://open-innovations.org/events/e/1uJOcvgbgqYOH" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">you can find it on our hubpage</a>.We would now like to invite you to join us for the third stage of the project which will be a Show &amp; Tell on 16th February 2022 12PM-1PM. During this session, the prototype visualisation will be showcased alongside talks about its development, the datasets used and why, and how people can still get involved in making it better.Tickets are available for the Show &amp; Tell now, please sign up and be ready to bring your contributions and opinions. <ol><h3>Tech Q&A</h3>Where is the link to the Zoom session?The sessions are completely 'open' as everyone is welcome to register, but in order to help keep the sessions safe from gate-crashers we do not post the link anywhere online. The only way to get the link to the session is to register via Eventbrite and then we send the details out before the session begins.If you are using a company-issued device, it's possible that emails from services like Eventbrite are automatically blocked or sent to junk folders. Please check all of your email folders OR use a non-work email to register. You've entered your email incorrectly at the time of registration. You will know this has happened because you won't receive the automatic 'you have registered for this event' welcome email. If this is the case, you can contact the team at Open Innovations to manually change your registration info. It has simply been buried somewhere in busy inboxes. We can relate. We send out more than one reminder, including one just before the session begins, so please keep an eye on your inbox. </ol><ol>I can't find the email with the details.When we send the event details, it will not come from 'Open Innovations.' It will come from Eventbrite and will have the event title in the subject line. So a couple of things could have happened here:When will I be sent the Zoom details?We send out at least two reminders , the day before the session, and a reminder on the day 20 minutes before the session begins. * Please note by registering for this session you are consenting to the recording and upload of this content to our YouTube channel. Closed captioning will also be enabled; this is to make the discussion accessible to all. If you wish to turn this off, you will need to do so in your personal Zoom account settings. </ol>

Our {communityGuidelinesLink} describe the sort of content we prohibit on Eventbrite. If you suspect an event may be in violation, you can report it to us so we can investigate.
