Industrial data ecosystems are inter-organizational forms of cooperation emerging around sharing data. They arise from a digital infrastructure, giving data providers and data users a platform to share and (re-)use data. Data spaces are among the digital infrastructures frequently associated with data ecosystems, as they supply a shared digital space for its participants to share data in a sovereign way. Data spaces aim to close a gap in the digital infrastructure landscape, addressing concerns of organizations when sharing data, such as data misappropriation or a lack of control of shared data. They do this by implementing data sovereignty—typically through Usage Control Policies—that give data providers the means to formalize semantically and technically how data users are allowed to use their data. In this fundamentals article, we address the following issues: (1) contextualizing and demarcating data spaces and data ecosystems, (2) systematizing data spaces in the research and policy landscape, and (3) elaborating on a research agenda for Information Systems (IS) research.

Data intermediation services are a novel class of services mitigating various aspects of inter-organizational data sharing. Facilitating data intermediation services is a pivotal activity that leverages the benefits of the data economy. These services are usually provided by so-called data intermediaries, who organize data sharing between one or multiple data provider(s) and data consumer(s). Against the background of prominent legislation, these data intermediaries (e.g., data marketplaces or data trusts) receive increasing attention in research, practice, and politics. For instance, the Data Governance Act regulates data intermediation services, prompting organizations sharing data to comply with various regulations, including registration with government bodies or acquiring a trusted label. However, to date, little research has been done about the nature of data intermediation services, motivating us to tackle this issue in a two-fold strategy. First, we derive a visualization of a data intermediary and concept subsuming its potential functions. Second, we explore archetypical configurations of co-existing services of data intermediaries. With this, we contribute to understanding the data intermediaries as a concept and enrich this understanding with more detailed service configurations.
Car manufacturers and suppliers in the Automotive industry increasingly face the issue of optimization of highly complex supply chains that need to accommodate each customer's precise demands, requiring a vast array of parts and information to be available at the right place and at the right time. This involves data sharing between organizations, which is hindered by various issues, such as fear of data misappropriation by the data receiver or the involuntary disclosure of business secrets. The paper proposes design principles for a novel type of Inter-Organizational Information System, which addresses these challenges through the technical implementation of data sovereignty. The study reports on an Action Design Research study in the Automotive industry between a car manufacturer and a 1st-tier supplier. It contributes (a) design requirements, (b) design features, (c) an instantiation, and (d) design principles for this type of data sovereign inter-organizational information system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
