Collaborative data ecosystems: Vision to trust

From traditional data exchange and monetization to modern data sharing and co-creation, data ecosystems are integral to the new “experience economy”. Whether in the public or the private sector, turning those ecosystems into tangible value for organizations and end-users demands a solid foundation.


Access to the right data is instrumental for the success of modern services and applications. However, most often, the data you own is insufficient, and the data you need is in someone else’s hands.

How do you identify and prioritize data opportunities and remove barriers preventing you from using the data you need? What is best practice for forming the right partnerships, incentivizing data sharing, and managing governance and security across your entire data ecosystem? Or staying on top of data legislation and being an influencer for change? Our Collaborative Data Ecosystems offers a solution.

Through informed strategy, design, technology, and data science expertise, we imagine opportunities for sharing and co-creating with data, in both private and public sectors. From new products, services, and experiences for customers and citizens, to augmented insights informing your organization, we create value from data ecosystems that are financially sustainable, ethical, and socially responsible.

That’s not all. We can also act as a strategic liaison to identify and facilitate winning partnerships, champion advocacy programs, and represent your voice for new legislation and change.

“From vision to actual design, from technology to data sharing models and secure operations along the value chain, we support our clients to become masters of their data ecosystems.”

Establish robust governance

Design and implement rules and operating models for efficient, safe collaboration and governance of internal marketplaces and external partners, to protect the privacy and quality of ALL data.
