Our thinking on data issues of management importance in refereed publications that go deeper than our short stories. Dataspace solves today's data and data analytics productivity problem. Dataspace .,, is a shift from Big Data (high cost) to Better Data (higher returns) - providing the right data with relevant information content and quality (think: food labels for ingredients and nutritional value), and all in the right quantity is peer-to-peer data communications - not storage - and with data sovereignty protection so that you can exchange data and maintain control of the rights to your data at all times

Automotive is evolving and merging into a larger mobility sector due to climate regulation on the one hand, and new digital capabilities with software (see SW-defined car) and data as its fuel (see dataspace) on the other hand.

Retail analytics is a vital Motion Data capability and a powerful product that can help companies plan and execute their strategies more effectively and profitably than they could using more conventional store planning techniques.

Do you continue just to store data, or are you sharing? Either way, we’d like to invite you to take part in a Catena-X event on June 5th, 2023, in Austin, TX. Catena-X is the world’s first open and collaborative dataspace and ecosystem, launched recently in Europe. Now, leading automakers, their suppliers and service providers are bringing this paradigm-shifting data-sharing system to North America. This event will be your opportunity to talk to the founders and leaders from Catena-X, Gaia-X and the International Data Space Association (IDSA), to understand the importance of dataspaces to business, to experience their capabilities and impact, and enjoy a front-row seat to the launch of the Catena-X Hub in North America.

It felt like a United Nations meeting crossed with an auto show but focused on dataspaces. International participants met in Austria on “neutral” ground for a spectacle with talks, demos and parties. Gaia-X organized Market-X, and it brought together policymakers, dataspace pioneers like the International Data Spaces Association (IDSA), leading projects such as the Gaia-X 4 Future Mobility (GX4FM) family, first dataspace operators like the Mobility Data Space, consultants like Detecon, and vendors like Google.
