Many businesses are embracing the sharing of data, and are seeing tangible benefits for their organisations and across their entire sectors
Through our research, we’ve discovered that data sharing can:
- Encourage innovation
- Optimise supply chains
- Address common challenges across a sector
- Improve market reach
- Benchmark success and get new insights
- Help comply with regulation
- Demonstrate trustworthiness
Through our tools, training, research and consultancy, we can help you to also discover the benefits for your own organisation and how you can achieve them.
Many businesses are embracing the sharing of data, and are seeing tangible benefits for their organisations and across their entire sectors. Josh D’Addario, Consultant at the ODI, has been talking to these organisations and researching the benefits. Josh shares his top seven reasons why businesses should be sharing data.
The ODI is engaging with private-sector companies to show how sharing data can positively impact the bottom line.
We are already seeing open approaches to data happening in sectors such as physical activity, banking, and pharmaceuticals.
This project seeks to demonstrate the business value of sharing data to a sector, network or individual business, looking at how an organisation might benefit in terms of innovation, network capabilities, and brand positioning.
