Fraunhofer and SINTEF jointed Industrial Data Space Association in early 2016. Industrial Data Space stands for safer data exchange between companies where the producer of data remains the owner of the data and maintains sovereignty over the use of that data. IDS Association aims to define the conditions and governance for a reference architecture and interfaces aiming at international standards. This standard is actively developed and updated on the basis of use cases. It forms the basis for a number of certified software solutions and business models, the development of which is fostered by the association. Thorsten Huelsmann and Ernst H. Kristiansen talked on this topic during the German-Norwegian Dialogue on Bilateral and European Cooperation , September 29 2016 at Berlin.

Digitalisation is both an enabler and a driving force
behind innovative business models.
A key ability for innovative business models is to be
able to combine data in one “ecosystem”.
Digital services follow common architecture principles:
• Services are decoupled from physical platforms/products
• The architecture levels are decoupled
• Products become platforms and vice versa
• “Ecosystems“ develop around platforms
• Innovation takes place cooperatively

22. • Exchange of data and services between industrial companies is
essential element of digital transformation
• Added value is generated in the form of new products and smart
services by networking companies, exchanging data between
companies and integrating publicly available data
• New, digital business models are also possible in conventional
industries
• This guarantees the competitiveness of industrial companies and their
independence from IT companies
• Data security and trust in secure data exchange are essential
prerequisites here
