BRUSSELS – December 7, 2020 – In comments submitted today on the UK National Data Strategy, BSA | The Software Alliance welcomes the UK’s forward-looking efforts to build a modern, data-driven economy.

The UK National Data Strategy includes the right set of objectives to fully leverage the economic and social potential of data – to help meet immediate challenges raised by the pandemic, support short-term recovery, and enable long-term growth and prosperity,” said Isabelle Roccia, Senior Manager, Policy – EMEA at BSA. “Whether it is enhancing access to government data, boosting the efficiency of organizations through data-driven innovation, or contributing to a future-proof privacy landscape that allows data to flow, software is at the center of the UK National Data Strategy.
