The Society for Professional Data Managers (SPDM) was established in 2017 to support the professional development of the worldwide community of data and information managers working in the energy sector.
Founded by CDA and Stiftelsen ECIM, it is a not-for-profit organisation registered in Norway, and working to support its members wherever they may be.
The Society works mostly online, through webinars, digital conferences, and its Slack workspace to keep its members connected, and to enable them to stay abreast of data and digital developments in the energy sector, and increasingly, in the broader transition to low or zero carbon sources of energy.
Open to all, the Society aims to offer an accessible, inclusive environment for all members to take part, be represented, and, if they wish to stand for election, join the Board of the Society and have a direct influence on its future direction and goals.
