Navigating the data exchange/trading arena proves challenging due to the involvement of multiple parties, leading to issues of trust, privacy, consent, and regulatory complexities. The existing market mechanisms for data exchange face hurdles, exacerbated by the dynamic nature of data and the digital landscape. Additionally, challenges in market competition, fair settlement practices, and determining ownership rights further complicate the ecosystem. Organizations must grapple with these challenges, ranging from establishing trust frameworks to addressing evolving privacy regulations and ensuring fair compensation for data contributors. Tackling these complexities necessitates collaborative efforts and innovative solutions to create a secure, transparent, and ethical data exchange environment.
