De Nederlandse visie op datadeling tussen bedrijven
Initiative overview
The Netherlands’ vision on business-to-business data sharing sets three guiding principles: prefer voluntary sharing arranged by market actors; allow mandatory sharing where a clear public interest exists and voluntary arrangements fall short; and ensure people and firms retain control over their data. In practice, the government adopts a facilitative role (e.g., supporting agreements frameworks such as iSHARE in logistics) and points to sector schemes like MedMij (health) and JoinData (agriculture) as models for technical/organisational governance. The document also links the approach to EU developments (e.g., PSD2) and tasks ministries with applying these principles in their domains, with attention to interoperability, privacy (AVG), and protection of confidential business information.
