Important results from the project
The original goal was to hold an innovation competition during SMW, but when this did not work, the focus shifted to creating the conditions for a digital service ecosystem. The work has included investigation of controlled data sharing via VWTnet and requirements on VWT Marketplace for service exposure. This has attracted great interest, especially among actors within the Singaporean ecosystem who are now joining VWT.
Expected long term effects
The long-term effects are expected to be a good set of services that reflect the use cases ("disruption management" and "emission calculations") that VWT intends to exploit based on access to primary data.
Approach and implementation
After the described shift in purpose, the project has had greater effects than originally intended. By making visible the opportunities that VWT offers for both users and service providers, the project has succeeded in attracting new actors who have subsequently been invited into the community to co-create VWT´s governance and content.
