It seems only yesterday that the Information Governance Initiative was born, and already we have its 2014 Annual Report which, in its authors’ own words:

advances an authoritative definition of information governance (IG) and its core concepts; identifies the products and services that organizations are buying and the projects they are doing; and provides operational tools and insights that IG practitioners can start using today.

Its purpose is to encourage and support those who are responsible for the multiple components which make up IG with well-sourced statistics and analysis, a definition of IG, and practical help towards selling the subject to the board, promoting awareness and designing and executing IG strategy within a company.

You can find more details on this page which includes a press release summarising what the report covers together with a link to the report itself and to a set of infographics which can be used by practitioners.

I hope to write more fully about it in due course. For now, I simply point you to it.
