NTT DATA's Challenge to Implement Data Spaces: A Seminar on Digital Infrastructure

NTT DATA's Challenge to Implement Data Spaces

On April 20, 2026, NTT DATA will host a seminar aimed at shedding light on the implementation of data spaces, a crucial development in the realm of digital infrastructure. Under the guidance of Senior Expert Yuji Hagiwara from the NTT DATA Group's Technology Innovation Headquarters, participants will explore the pressing need for effective data utilization in today’s fast-evolving business landscape.

Seminar Overview

In recent years, the significance of data utilization has surged, especially as society faces cross-industry challenges and the rise of advanced generative AI technologies. Despite this upsurge, publicly available data remains scarce, with much of the information confined to individual companies and not being adequately utilized. Effectively harnessing this internal data is paramount for value creation. Moreover, to promote collaborations across borders, the concept of data spaces is gaining international momentum, allowing companies to share data and value seamlessly.

During the seminar, we will delve into the current state of data spaces, examine concrete case studies, and outline NTT DATA's initiatives aimed at their successful realization. The session will cover several key areas, including:

1. What is a Data Space?
An overview of what data spaces entail and their relevance in today’s digital economy.

2. Case Studies of Data Spaces
Concrete examples showcasing how various organizations are leveraging data spaces to their advantage.

3. Realistic Challenges and Solutions in Implementing Data Spaces
Discussion on the obstacles faced during implementation and practical responses to overcome them.

4. Technological Developments to Foster Inter-enterprise Data Collaboration
Innovations that facilitate smoother data sharing between companies.

5. Q&A and Networking Opportunities
An interactive session allowing participants to get answers to their queries, followed by opportunities to exchange business cards.
