TRUSTS requirements elicitation questionnaire

  1. What is TRUSTS
The current European data market is not functioning optimally. An estimated 90% of the data collected by companies is not used. Companies can innovate a lot, improve processes, offer better products and services, and learn about the market on which they operate, when they use and share collected data.

Data marketplaces can be the solution. A data marketplace is an online platform that data-providers and data-buyers connect to through an online interface to buy and sell data from each other.

However, data marketplaces come in many shapes and with various functionalities. We are interested to know what functionalities and benefits you see as important. This information will help TRUSTS (TRUSTS has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Grant Agreement No 871481) to build the data marketplace that fulfils your needs and creates business value.

We would like to hear your opinion about this!
