Vision & Guiding Principles

Consensus of the pioneers: Significant need for action to meet the challenges of the automotive industry. Creation of a German / European
investment in interoperable and secure information exchange and network-based services.
Alliance Vision: Provisioning of a user-friendly environment for building, operating and collaborating on end-to-end data chains along the entire(automotive) value chain.
Guiding principle: Collaborative approach to selecting and implementing scalable, system-relevant use cases. Covering the entire value chain of
the automotive industry, regardless of company size.
Security & Openness: Openness and non-discriminatory access to the network as the overriding principle for all market participants.
Implementation of data sovereignty, security & interoperability principles based on GAIA-X & concepts of IDSA.
Openness to technology: Openness and interoperability of the technology landscape (multi-tech approach). Based on standards, a solution
portfolio of certified, network-based applications and solutions is created.
Industry standards: Validation of the GAIA-X principles and management of industry-specific requirements by the association. Open exchange
for the Catena-X standards and certifications with industry-relevant standardization bodies where appropriate.

Data Sharing in the Businessworld• Industries are fragmented in value chains where every player is
specialized in production of goods or services to optimize production
process• At every stage of the value chain competition operates preventing
sharing of data.
• Coase describes economic efficiency in presence of externalities:
If trade in an externality is possible and there is sufficiently lowtransaction cost, bargaining will lead to the most efficient outcome
regardless of the initial allocation of property• Industrial data(often seen as externality) can be traded within anecosystem of partners to bring a value outcome which mightotherwise be prevented by systematic competition

Regulations in preparation in Europe:
the role of data intermediary• European Commission has proposed three regulations:• Digital Market Act• Digital Service Act• Data Governabce Act• The importance of regulating the role of data intermediary forbusiness platform• Ecosystem partners cannot be data intermediary (Art 11)• The challenge for platform operating companies

Gaia-X Hubs | Gaia-X and Data Society Alliance
Professional Partners | Gaia-X and Data Society Alliance
Gaia-X with already over 300 members within less than one year since official
inauguration and 15 established Hubs in Europe.
Data Society Alliance with strong footprint in Japan and solid history since 2017.

Three Pillars tosupport Gaia-Xand DSA activities

Scale in Japan and the EU
Both parties commit to support data sharing activities in Japan and respectively inEurope.
Common and joint coordination on a regional level with ambition to strengthen thewhole community.

Joint Innovations on Data and Cloud
Both parties will collaboratively work hence to growing socio-economic growth throughout
increased sovereignty and trust in data and cloud technologies.
Focus will be laid on concrete use cases, thus early value add for the whole society.
