A seminar on data trading called the Data Circulation Trading Salon was held in the Guiyang National High-tech Industrial Development Zone (Guiyang HIDZ) – located in Guiyang, capital city of Southwest China's Guizhou province – on Oct 25.
The seminar – one of a number of events in the Guizhou series of the 2021 National Mass Entrepreneurship and Innovation Week – aimed to help create a good data trading and transaction environment in the region, as well as explore the path to further resources and capitalization of data elements.
Guizhou Yunshang Data Trading Co opened the event with a keynote speech on "Data Circulation Transaction", proposing the development of a secure and reliable trading system and that the development of the data element market be expedited.
Others giving presentations included Yunshang Beidou (Guizhou) Technology Co, Guizhou Xinqixiang Technology Co, Guizhou Yihualu Data Asset Research Institute Co, Yunshang Shulian (Guizhou) Information Technology Co and the Guizhou unit of the Big Data Security Engineering Research Center.
They covered the topics of spatial and geographic data, meteorological data, data transactions, data cleaning and processing and data transaction security, respectively.
The data trading platform was launched on Oct 11 and a total of 28 professional data providers – including Cloud Guizhou, Guizhou Power Grid and Guizhou UnionPay – have since settled there.
More than 40 data products and data services have been released and three data transaction contracts were completed there, involving a transaction amount of 2.5 million yuan ($390,000).
The online operations of the data trading platform are said to provide a new "experimental field" for the national big data industry in exploring data confirmation, data pricing, transaction mechanisms and operating models.
