By opening what was formerly proprietary data, Amazon increased sales \u201cby exposing product information to the largest possible number of potential customers.\u201d Other large organizations, such as<span style=\"color: #7bc236;\"><a style=\"color: #7bc236;\" href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/content\/dam\/Deloitte\/uk\/Documents\/deloitte-analytics\/open-data-driving-growth-ingenuity-and-innovation.pdf\"> Google, Asos, and Nike<\/a><\/span>, made more data open to their customers and improved their connections with them. In doing so, they demonstrated their commitments to transparency and sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>The benefits extend well beyond the bottom line.<\/p>\n<p>Open data emerged from the idea of \u201copen science,\u201d which was born out of the rise of online journals in the 1990s. <span style=\"color: #7bc236;\"><a style=\"color: #7bc236;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6781855\/\">This shift was spurred<\/a><\/span> by the fact that much research is funded by the public\u2019s tax dollars, and thus the public should have open access to its results rather than having them hidden behind paywalls. It also took into account what many would argue was the original intent of scientific research \u2013 to support transparency and collaboration.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #7bc236; font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Why We Need Open Data: Transparency &amp; Collaboration\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Not only does open data improve research by increasing the reproducibility of results, generating larger sample sizes, and maximizing taxpayer funding in cases of publicly funded projects, it creates more opportunities for innovation and collaboration.<\/p>\n<p><img  title=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-44774 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/sago.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/businesswoman-manager-hand-using-stylus-pen-writing-768x426-1-300x166.jpg\"  alt=\"sago\"  width=\"300\" height=\"166\" \/>As organizations share their data, others can take it and use it in novel ways. They then find better solutions to common challenges by looking at a wide breadth of information that is more representative of the people facing them. Synergies between what may have appeared to be unrelated organizations become evident, enabling new partnerships to grow and improve all parties.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #7bc236;\"><a style=\"color: #7bc236;\" href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/the-future-will-be-built-on-open-data-heres-why-52785\">The Conversation<\/a><\/span> cites Future City Glasgow as an example of how open data initiatives in the public sector can work to enhance the public good, as it uses \u201copen data to create predictive systems that provide the information citizens need to make better day-to-day decisions.\u201d This same logic can be applied to business, as they use open data to make better decisions.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #7bc236; font-size: 20px;\"><strong>Challenges to Open Data Include Privacy, Publishing, and Proprietary Information<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There is no doubt, however, there are obstacles that open data must overcome. First, how do we make it appealing and beneficial for researchers to release their data? The phrase \u201cpublish or perish\u201d is one many public and academic researchers are forced to live by, as the production of data in and of itself is not rewarded or recognized. The fear of getting scooped or having a career trajectory stopped in its tracks because one isn\u2019t publishing enough is real, and we must find ways to mitigate this in our public research.<\/p>\n<p>Second, there are genuine concerns about protecting the privacy of those whose data is being shared. This is a challenge we are only just beginning to address at the scale necessary. We will require companies to step up and find innovative measures to protect privacy while governing bodies catch up to this shift.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, many businesses don\u2019t see the benefit of sharing proprietary information, fearing that it will make them less competitive. Businesses must begin to have more discussions about the benefits not just to society, but to business outcomes by sharing open data regularly.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1660105530410{padding-top: 15px !important;padding-right: 15px !important;padding-bottom: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;background-color: #003b52 !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: right;\" width=\"25%\">\n<h4><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 32px;\">Up to <\/span><\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 32px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 42px; color: #7bc236;\">73 percent <\/span>of the data within a company goes unused.<\/span> <\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<\/td>\n<td><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Internally, many businesses face similar opportunities and challenges when it comes to making their data accessible.
