Data Sharing, Open Data & Interoperability Strategy

Share data across institutions without surrendering advantage or privacy.

IPAT Executive Certificate 5 intensive days CEOs, CIOs/CDOs, heads of analytics, product, operations and strategy; regulators and policy leaders responsible for digital and AI supervision.

The executive challenge

The problem this program solves

The data sharing initiative reports activity — dashboards shipped, models trained, workshops held — while the P&L cannot name a single decision it changed. Executives who cannot arbitrate between competing analytical claims end up outsourcing judgement to whoever presented last. This is where data sharing stops being a technology conversation and becomes an executive discipline you can defend in any boardroom.

Context

Why this matters now

Regulators across African markets are moving from encouragement to scrutiny: data sharing governance, data protection and accountability are becoming supervisory topics.
Boards now ask for a data sharing strategy with the seriousness they bring to capital strategy — and most executive teams still answer with vendor slideshows.
Competitors are already industrialising data sharing into pricing, credit, service and operations; waiting is a strategy, just rarely a winning one.

Capability

What you will be able to do

  • Evaluate where data sharing creates economic value across the organisation — and where it reliably does not.
  • Govern data sharing models and data with controls that satisfy both boards and regulators.
  • Price the build, buy and partner options for data sharing capability with real economics.
  • Distinguish data sharing automation opportunities from decisions where human judgement remains strategically important.

The IPAT Course Standard

The five-day journey

Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps.

IPAT Signature Case™

The Data Sharing Model Nobody Can Explain

A a national revenue authority deployed a data sharing model into daily operations. It performs — until a customer dispute, a journalist and the regulator arrive in the same week, and no one can reconstruct why the model decided what it decided.

Your decision: Pause the model pending an explainability rebuild, defend it as deployed, or restrict it to advisory use — each response signals something different to the regulator, the market and your own staff.

IPAT Data Lab™

A a fast-scaling e-commerce platform suspects its data sharing spending is aimed at the wrong customers — and the intuition cannot yet be defended in the boardroom.

Dataset: Synthetic data sharing panel for a fast-scaling e-commerce platform: the tables, formats and quality gaps your team would find on day one.

Your task: Structure the data, segment and score it, and translate the model into one operating decision about where the money should go.

A data sharing decision memo backed by an analysis you built and can defend.

Data → Analysis → Decision, not Data → Code → Certificate
