2018 is a big year for data as the GDPR comes into force in May. It’s undoubtedly sharpened focus on the industry and brought data issues to the forefront of many organisations.

Last year, Experian commissioned Dylan Jones and the team at Data Migration Pro to carry out a programme of research looking at the current data migration landscape.
