Make better-informed decisions and deliver efficient support to the people and the planet by improving data collaboration with internal and external stakeholders.
The COVID-19 crisis illustrates how critical and strategic data exchange is in resolving global crises and addressing major concerns. NGOs and institutions now realize that better data circulation is essential to building a better world.
Whether they are related to climate, food, diseases, humanitarian concerns, economy, environment or society, all major challenges of the twenty-first century can be successfully met through better access and use of data gleaned from multiple sources and organized within data ecosystems. Data ecosystems have become a fundamental component of business competitiveness and economic sovereignty by fostering innovation.
Organizations who share data have improved outcomes due to more informed decisions, sharper insights, and improved collaboration, and they can offer more relevant services for the people and the planet.
More than $20 billion in new value has been created by public-private data exchanges for the common good. They have adopted innovative business models, privacy-enhancing new approaches and technologies to strengthen citizen trust.
The challenges organizations are facing today, whether economic, environmental or societal, have become so complex that it is impossible for any individual organization or government to solve them by themselves. Sharing and exchanging data between multiple stakeholders at scale has become an imperative.
The 2022 Davos Agenda had 4 dedicated sessions on data exchange and data sharing.
Listen to the panel entitled “Strengthening Trust in Public-Private Data Exchanges” where Fabrice Tocco, Dawex co-CEO, is sharing his vision on new data exchange ecosystems.
“Public-private data exchanges for the common good have created more than $20 billion in new value as they have adopted innovative business models, privacy-enhancing technologies and new approaches for strengthening citizen trust.”
Accelerating response with Data Exchange
The COVID-19 pandemic has illustrated how critical data use is to build up fast response in crisis situations. Data Exchange Platforms offer a trusted environment to facilitate and accelerate data circulation while ensuring traceability and security over the data transaction. Here are some use cases where data sharing is a game changer:
“We urgently need a renewed focus on achieving global digital and data governance, developing global digital public goods, increasing trust and reducing uncertainty in the digital economy. The pandemic has shown the critical importance of sharing health data globally.”

Reducing carbon footprint
Climate change requires immediate and far-reaching action. According to the BCG, cross-sector data partnerships contribute to speeding up the journey to net-zero GHG emissions by 5 to 10%. Data Exchange solutions are key in helping climate related data circulate and raising awareness among the many stakeholders with the following goals:
“Successful weather and climate services are completely dependent upon continued access to observational data from around the globe, exchanged internationally.”
Improving natural resource management
Natural resources and biodiversity are threatened by human activities. Sharing and exchanging data can optimize the use of natural resources and reduce the human footprint:
Monitoring trends and forecast economic developments
The need for statistical, economic and social data has never been so critical to understand the transformations the world is undergoing. Data Exchange solutions improve data accessibility and can be used to preserve economic sovereignty. Facilitating data circulation through trusted and secure data exchange environments enables the development of powerful use cases, among them:
Optimize internal and external stakeholder cooperation to meet strategic objectives
Data exchange within and between organizations facilitates the circulation of data and information sharing, allowing teams to improve communication, gain operational efficiency, foster new products and services, and create partnerships to capitalize on the richness and full potential provided by data. By accelerating the flow of data flow, NGOs and institutions can:
“At the core of our Strategy is a simple idea: We start with data action that adds immediate value for our organization and the people we serve.”
The World Economic Forum Global Future Council on Data Policy undertook the impressive work of mapping the forces that are transforming the data ecosystem. As a Tech Pioneer and member of the Global Future Council, Dawex was invited to deliver the Data Exchange perspective.
The need for exchanging data between public and private organizations has never been more crucial as it addresses business and societal challenges, reinforcing public-private partnerships to foster new cooperation power based on data circulation.
The benefits created by the circulation of data are infinite.
