It’s time to focus on your company’s most impor­tant intan­gi­ble asset: data. Data is too valu­able to be left for the IT depart­ment alone. Because data knows no bound­aries or con­straints of the orga­ni­za­tion, nei­ther inter­nal nor exter­nal, a holis­tic, data sup­ply chain-wide approach to man­ag­ing it is need­ed. In the stu­dio, Tom­mi Viher­vaara, a dig­i­tal solu­tion devel­op­ment pro­fes­sion­al, co-host of the Dat­apääo­ma blog and pod­cast, and the author of a book to be pub­lished this year, dis­cussing with our chief busi­ness offi­cer Janne Anttila.
