Advisory Council
Our advisory council brings together 14 senior leaders from the insights industry and academia. They shape the guidelines and guardrails behind the Standard, and they keep the work grounded in the questions practitioners face when they buy, use and evaluate synthetic data.
We are grateful to each of them for lending their expertise to this effort.
Independence
The council shapes the guidelines and guardrails behind the standard. Council members play no role in certifying, endorsing or evaluating individual providers, and are not involved in certification decisions or in any provider publications. Members serve as individuals, not as representatives of their employers.
