Described as the “New Oil” of the Future Economy, data has the potential to shape economies around the world. Just as oil has driven much of the world’s economic developments, data is the new value driver. Data will drive the creation of a new generation of products and services that will reshape entire industries. In a digitalized and connected world where data is increasingly ubiquitous, both developed as well as emerging economies recognise that data should be treated and developed as a resource, similar to other conventional assets such as property or human capital. Nations are now taking a collaborative approach between industry and Government to catalyse data-driven innovations. There are many areas within the data ecosystem to capitalise on, such as data processing, analytics, security, standards and more. Enterprises themselves are beginning to realise opportunities and benefits of such data asset value extraction activities. Benefits include cost reductions, optimised tracking of inventory and increased revenue. Data owners across industry sectors are beginning to view their data assets as not only fundamentally valuable, but also economically viable to distribute, resulting in a growing marketplace for data. While the commercialization of data presents enormous opportunities, there are pre-requisites that companies, organizations and governments must overcome to fully harness the potential of data as a commercial value driver.
