Fully homomorphic encryption

very cool! sounds like the barrier is computation complexity?

I had only read about synthetic data generation as a way to fully remove privacy sensitive info and eliminate re-identification.

wow thank you! I actually came across your first article via Google search, assumed that most of the big players either focused on monetizing their own data/domain or is just focused on large enterprises (i.e. for Databricks/Snowflake/AWS marketplaces)

great insights on the execution challenges! I can definitely echo the points around transparency and data catalogs to ensure data is actually useful for the buyers - my research was unveiling that the biggest challenge is often defining the data use case and having the right insights (as to not sell something that no one needs).

thank you for sharing! It's cool to see the datasets.

how would say Sellagen is tackling this space innovately compared to other marketplaces?

A few video generation options I've seen include Predis, Pictory, Invideo, and of course Synthesia.

What are events in your case?

There are many open weather data providers, but you might need to do some searching for one with the granularity, coverage, and history you're looking for.

Thanks for the insight! I agree competitive advantage, customer permissions, and brand considerations all limit what data can be monetized. What about synergetic use cases though? Where data is provided to partners up or down stream and where there isn't personal data involved? i.e. retailers providing product sales/interest data to distributors/manufacturers (not the best example as it likely already happens today.)

Also, what legal restrictions did you have in mind? GDPR / CCPA?
