The Big Data Revolution in Canadian Agriculture: A Symposium on Challenges, Opportunities and Alternatives

This event will share and mobilize information about who owns and benefits from the big ag data that is being collected, ways of addressing privacy and data sharing concerns, and alternative policies and organizational models (e.g., data co-operatives) that can help create more equitable data ownership. 

The Symposium will be a hybrid event, where attendees can join in person or online via live streaming. Both online and in-person attendees will have the ability to communicate and engage with the speakers and each other during the event. 

The Symposium is open to anyone interested in big ag data, including farmers, ranchers, co-op practitioners, professional organization and associations, academics, policy makers, and members of the general public.
