Data monetisation and beyond:​ Redefining ​the economics of data​

With the increasing amount of generated, streamed and processed data, it is more critical than ever for organisations to understand how to transform this key asset into value. ​

Data monetisation offers a structured approach to identify, define and leverage data assets, creating tangible economic benefits. This process can unlock new revenue streams, reduce costs and open opportunities for innovative data related services ​and partnerships.​

By harnessing the power of cloud technologies and their role in modern data strategies, organisations can realise significant rewards from relatively small investments.​

​This thought leadership aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of data monetisation essentials, enablers and challenges. It provides a structured mechanism to help organisations uncover data value and develop the capabilities needed to thrive in the data-driven economy.​

Key highlights:

  • Economic value of data: The data economy now contributes to 4% of the EU’s GDP, with open data markets expected to reach US$352 billion by 2025.

  • Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030: Saudi Arabia is positioning itself as a leader in the global data economy, with more than 245 government entities already implementing the National Data Management Office’s framework.

  • Monetisation strategies: Successful data monetisation requires a combination of cost optimisation, enhanced customer experiences, and new revenue streams.

  • Key enablers: Advancements in business intelligence, AI, and cloud computing are vital in leveraging data assets effectively.
