Description:

Join us on July 16, 2025 at 2pm Eastern for an engaging webinar as Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc. shares the inspiring evolution of its Data Governance Journey—launched nearly four years ago to lay the groundwork for a data-driven organization. From establishing data as a corporate asset to making it Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR), Regeneron’s journey began by tackling a key challenge: understanding what data exists, where it resides, and how to access it. Through the implementation of a Data Catalog, the organization not only addressed this pain point but also fostered awareness around critical roles such as Data Owners and Data Stewards. A Data Literacy program further empowered employees to communicate effectively with data, break down silos, and foster a collaborative, data-informed culture.

This webinar takes a deep dive into one of the core building blocks of that journey—Data Quality Governance (DQG). Discover Regeneron’s robust four-phase DQG framework (Define, Analyze, Fix, Sustain) and learn how roles, tools, and processes come together to ensure data quality across the enterprise. Real-world use cases will showcase the tangible impact of data quality on business operations and compliance. You’ll also explore strategies for continuous improvement and the role of shared services in supporting enterprise-wide data quality initiatives. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain strategic insights and actionable takeaways for your own data governance efforts.

We will delve into the following topics.

 

  • Comprehensive Framework: Learn about our four-phase Data Quality Governance (DQG) process—Define, Analyze, Fix, and Sustain—that systematically addresses data quality issues.
  • Roles and Responsibilities: Understand the critical roles such as Data Stewards, Data Owners, and Data Users, and their responsibilities in ensuring data quality.
  • Implementation Methods: Discover various methods and tools, including internal workshops, business data steward dashboards, and root cause analysis, to enhance data quality.
  • Real-World Use Cases: Explore impactful business use cases, highlighting the consequences of poor data quality on operations and compliance.
  • Continuous Improvement: Learn about strategies for continuous data quality improvement, including monitoring metrics, performing root cause analysis, and engaging in data champion communities.
  • Engagement and Support: Discuss the role of an enterprise DQG shared services in support data quality initiatives.
