Our mission for ethical data collection and our funding mechanism gets recognized. Here’s what this award means for us.
Being named a laureate of the Finance and Innovation For Good 2024 competition is a powerful recognition of our mission: making ethical data collection and funding mechanisms more accessible, transparent, and impactful.
This award highlights the growing importance of data as a driver of social innovation and the need for sustainable models that ensure equitable value distribution in emerging markets.
At d-Node, we believe that data is more than a resource: it can also be a key asset for change. Our approach focuses on facilitating data creation, aggregation, and reuse, enabling communities, researchers, and businesses to unlock new opportunities through responsible and inclusive data ecosystems. By bridging funding gaps and ensuring that data assets generate lasting value, we strive to empower local initiatives while fostering global impact.
This seed funding will enable us to accelerate the development of d-Node, enhance our data platform, and strengthen our support for data-driven projects in emerging markets. It’s a crucial step toward expanding our network of contributors and funders, refining our ethical data-sharing mechanisms, and ensuring that local initiatives can generate sustainable value from their data assets.
This recognition is more than just an achievement, it’s a motivation to go further. We are excited to build on this momentum and continue working with partners, funders, and innovators who share our vision of a fairer and more efficient data economy.
Thanks to Sia Partners for organizing this event and the jury.
