About Data Collaboration Alliance
Data Collaboration Alliance is a nonprofit organization that’s dedicated to establishing control as the basis of meaningful data ownership and global collaborative intelligence. Its approach of minimizing data and eliminating data silos is similar to how societies already control the value of their currency and intellectual property – and it works for data, too. In concert with its partners, the non-profit is actively building the controlled, collaboration-based future it wants to see through community, research, and Data For Good projects. Advisors include the Executive Director of the Mozilla Foundation and the ex-CIO of Dropbox.
