Safe-DEED  (Safe Data-Enabled Economic Development) brings together partners from cryptography, data science, business innovation, and legal domain to focus on improving Security technologies, improving trust as well as on the diffusion of Privacy enhancing technologies. Furthermore, as many companies have no data valuation process in place,  Safe-DEED  provides a set of tools to facilitate the assessment of data value, thus incentivising data owners to make use of the scalable cryptographic protocols developed in  Safe-DEED  to create value for their companies and their clients.

Expertise

Broadly speaking, my interest lies in understanding the impact of emerging technologies on businesses' and citizens' attitudes around data. Within my PhD, I am specifically interested in investigating the meaning of Multi-Party Computation (MPC), which is one class of privacy-enhancing technology (PETs), on data sharing decisions by firms and citizens. My vision in the coming years is to mainstream MPC and PETs research within the Information Systems (IS) community by investigating what MPC means for:

  • Firms' resources and dynamic capabilities in enabling data-driven business model innovation
  • Architectural design and governance of privacy-enhancing data sharing
  • Inter-organizational collaboration and collective action in addressing grand challenges
  • Firms' and citizens' attitude towards data sharing
