Hi, I'm Irina Bolychevsky

I specialise in digital strategy, leadership, interfacing between tech and non-technical stakeholders, building communities, policy and supporting teams to deliver effectively. With particular expertise in data, open data, data platforms, standards, privacy and decentralised technology.

I led the ckan open source data platform to international adoption, served on Open Knowledge’s senior management team and now as a board member and developed the personal data infrastructure programme within the UK’s Government Digital Service. I have developed national and federal policy, regulatory, commercial and technical frameworks for city-wide information marketplaces and am currently running a data trust pilot and advising on digital identity for the Open Data Institute.
