Who is winning the battle for data?

For anyone running a business relying on data and the opportunity to create value from it.

Data has surpassed oil in value. Data is a commodity that is harvested, sold and re-sold and fiercely guarded by all parts of the creative value chain. This seminar will explore the commercial, legal and political issues around data.

Quintillions of bytes of data points are created every single day. Every time you search online, share a ride or stream a song you add to the pile. Who gets it and what legal measures are they using to get the data they need?

 

Brands that sell through Amazon’s Vendor Central must pay for demographic data as part of a subscription to Amazon Retail Analytics (ARA) Premium, which can reportedly cost as much as $30,000 per year. Even though record labels and artists own the music, they cannot demand access to all the data on their audience Spotify generates every day. Whose data is it anyway?

 

Data has surpassed oil in value as a commodity generally used to improve and optimise marketing strategies and advertising budgets to increase profits. How can creative businesses assess which data points they need to legally fight for, protect and commodify? And how?
