Unlocking the Power of Unstructured Data

With the recent Spending Review and the imminent launch of the NHS 10-Year Plan, momentum behind the analogue-to-digital shift across the NHS has never been greater.

Yet, as NHS organisations prepare for a new wave of data-driven transformation, one critical challenge remains largely unaddressed: up to 80% of NHS data is unstructured... locked away in clinical notes, scanned documents, emails, and chat logs.

This unstructured data represents one of the NHS’s most valuable yet underutilised assets. The opportunity to extract actionable insights, improve patient outcomes, and drive operational efficiency is enormous. But so too is the risk! Unstructured data often harbours compliance vulnerabilities, hidden costs, and outdated or redundant content.

In this webinar, we bring together voices from those familiar with NHS Federated Data Platform (FDP) and leading Trusts to explore why structuring and governing unstructured data is essential to achieving the NHS’s strategic ambitions—from more responsive patient care to AI readiness.

Our expert panel will discuss:

  • Unlocking value: How to extract insights and intelligence from unstructured data, just as you do from structured sources.
  • Understanding your data: Identifying ROT (redundant, outdated, trivial) data, uncovering Microsoft 365 sprawl, and mapping security risks.
  • Protecting your data: Enforcing policies, automating remediation, and implementing reliable backup strategies to ensure business continuity.
  • Governing your workspaces: Standardising processes, automating compliance, and scaling InfoSec through intelligent data governance.

This webinar marks the final event in a national engagement programme led by Bytes, AvePoint and GovNews, featuring whitepapers, podcasts, and roundtables with stakeholders from NHS England, Royal Free London, Guys & St Thomas', Leeds Teaching Hospitals, Sheffield Teaching Hospitals, NHS Blood and Transplant, and more.

As we move from vision to execution, this session will explore how your organisation can transition from pilots to impactful, embedded data strategies and enabling safe, scalable, and sustainable use of AI and digital technologies in the NHS.
