Data Economy and Ecosystems

Accumulation of data has underlined the need for governance of data ecoysystem and data ecosystems to enhace ethical data use, instead of accepting exploitation of (personal) data. Our past and ongoing research includes topics such as:

  • Ethical govenrnance models for data economy and ecosystems
  • Fair and human-centric data use
  • Protection of data and cypersecurity

 

 

 

Last years one of main research area has been data economy and data ecosystems from a human-centric and ethical viewpoint. We have started this research with SITRA and outcomes from that was the Code of Conduct in the SITRA’s Rulebook for a fair data economy. This research has been followed in other projects that are focusing on the ethical use of personal information by public services in cooperation between governmental actors, citizens, business and the third sector.
