Data sharing is a topic that is gaining traction worldwide.

The EU, for example, is enacting horizontal and sectoral legislation to further boost data sharing. The European strategy for data of February 2020 also foresaw the creation of common European data spaces in strategic sectors such as manufacturing, mobility and green deal. One of the most prominent data spaces is Catena-X, the first collaborative, open ecosystem for the automotive industry of the future, linking global players into end-to-end value chains, with the shared goal of a standardized global data exchange.

In China, at the end of 2022, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council jointly issued the Opinions on Building Basic Systems for Data to Better Give Full Play to the Role of Data Resources (Twenty Data Measures), aiming at fully leveraging China’s abundant data resources and rich application scenarios, and shedding light on Chinese-style data governance. Since then, relevant government agencies have stepped up efforts in exploring concrete policy measures.
