Deliverables from this period have been shared with industry (see <a href=\"https:\/\/wearenima.im\/giig-publications\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"2704\">publications<\/a>). While that formal engagement ended, an appetite remains to further develop GIIG outputs for the public good and provide practical support. The GIIG is committed to share insights and\/or intellectual property for wider exploitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, the GIIG supports and is powered by nima, and aims to undertake consultancy work with public and private sector industry organisations. And, where we are allowed, we will share our learning to help improve industry-wide information management best practices regarding assets in the built and managed environment.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-2574_f01264-84 .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-2574_f01264-84 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:#eee;width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-2574_f01264-84\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-2574_94dce6-a8 .kt-block-spacer{height:20px;}.wp-block-kadence-spacer.kt-block-spacer-2574_94dce6-a8 .kt-divider{border-top-width:1px;height:1px;border-top-color:var(--global-palette1, #3182CE);width:80%;border-top-style:solid;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-spacer aligncenter kt-block-spacer-2574_94dce6-a8\"><div class=\"kt-block-spacer kt-block-spacer-halign-center\"><hr class=\"kt-divider\"\/><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-footnotes\"><li id=\"7315b595-d113-4179-b1a8-f639b903894d\">The FAIR principles are a core element of the UK Government\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/uk-national-data-strategy\/national-data-strategy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">National Data Strategy<\/a>.
