THE Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) on Tuesday reaffirmed Singapore's ambition to become the world's first "smart nation" and announced at the Smart Nation: Data Work event a series of supporting initiatives aimed at building a vibrant and sustainable data ecosystem.
First off is Data-as-a-Service (DaaS), a pilot programme that seeks to address the challenge of harnessing datasets in the private sector via a federated approach. Data providers from all industries can participate in the pilot to "increase the visibility of their datasets and reach out to new customers", IDA said.
