Innovation vs Privacy: The Open Data Economy Dilemma

The open data economy – meaning public information and data shared from private sources – is already estimated to generate $3 trillion in economic value per annum globally (McKinsey, 2013). Global infrastructure for responsible, ethical data liquidity is still required to unlock the next wave of cross-border, data-driven growth. Data privacy is a huge challenge for data custodians around the world, and open data cannot be achieved for industries with high risk. Regions around the world are approaching the data economy in different ways, with a few leading light markets asserting their position on how to remain competitive with data-driven innovation while managing data privacy.

Get insight into the current data economy landscape in front-running markets around the world, and the extent to which they are harnessing the potential of the data economy.

This whitepaper highlights the significant opportunities and challenges, and lays out how to maximise the scale of this once-in-a-generation industry transformation to facilitate safe, ethical cross-border flow of open data and insight.
