We live in a data-driven world, and businesses need effective data collaboration strategies to remain successful. Before you determine your 2023 and 2024 data collaboration options, it’s essential to understand what data collaboration is. In short, it involves sharing and combining data from multiple sources to better understand a customer base and make informed marketing decisions.
Read on to learn more about our three-step plan to create new data collaboration strategies, how it’s evolving, and what we do to ensure our solutions help maintain your company’s data privacy.
How data collaboration is evolving from 2023 to 2024
Data collaboration strategies continually evolve thanks to changing industry dynamics and new technologies. As we move from 2023 to 2024, we’ll likely see collaboration extending outside businesses, meaning data can be shared with external partnerships in the form of a data ecosystem. A data ecosystem is a platform that combines numerous information points, including packages, algorithms, and cloud-computing services, to allow businesses to store, analyze, and use the data they’ve collected.
To ensure you’re ready for 2024 data collaboration, you’ll need to take a forward-thinking approach toward new data strategies.
How to create efficient data collaboration strategies
Here are our three steps for efficient collaboration to make the most of 2023 data collaboration and prepare for 2024.
Identify your collaboration goal
What are you hoping to gain from data collaboration? Do you understand the audience you’re trying to target and what you want regarding outcomes? To measure your success, you should set short- and long-term goals surrounding data collaboration in 2023 and 2024.
Maximize the value of your data
One of the most important reasons to gather data is to discover in-depth insights into your audience and the effectiveness of your marketing efforts. You’ll be able to identify hidden patterns and pinpoint trends you may not have noticed before. With this information, you can make more strategic marketing decisions to stay competitive in your industry.
Resolve digital identities
Collaborating on data with trusted partners can help you gain a more complete view of your customers by building comprehensive digital profiles. Resolving digital identities can provide greater insight into online and offline behavior of individual consumers, allowing you to better connect with your target audience and boost brand loyalty.
Find an alternative to third-party cookies
Digital privacy regulations are getting more strict, which is why it’s so important to find more secure alternatives to third-party cookies. By collaborating on data, you can gather essential insights without relying on cookies. This means you’ll still get the information you want while complying with privacy regulations.
Choose the right collaboration partner
Before you choose a data collaboration partner, it’s essential to ensure their privacy standards align with yours. How do they collect data and use it ethically and responsibly?
At Experian, we are dedicated to protecting consumers and delivering responsible and transparent data practices. We focus on five Global Data Principles — security, accuracy, fairness, transparency, and inclusion — to ensure we treat data carefully and respectfully while boosting economic growth and resilience in the marketing environment.
When you partner with us for data collaboration, you can trust that your data is protected in a system built for 2023 data collaboration needs — both known and unknown — while still evolving for 2024 and beyond.
Choose a secure environment for collaboration
Data collaboration security is vital to safeguard your business and consumers’ information. You can make sure your new data collaboration options are protected in several ways. We’ve outlined three options below.
Collaboration in clean rooms
Clean rooms are secure, private environments where data is shared and analyzed without exposing the underlying raw data. This ensures that sensitive information remains protected and insights are discovered securely. Experian has vetted clean room partners if this is an option you prefer while still getting industry-leading identity resolution.
Collaboration directly
Collaborating directly with your partner can be a good option if you have robust security measures. Encryption, access controls, and regular audits are essential to maintain data security in direct collaborations.

For British Petroleum (BP), 2010 has been marked by the unfortunate developments resulting after the Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico on April 20. Since then, BP’s crisis mismanagement and failed attempts to stop the oil spill have transformed this unfortunate event into an ecological disaster with political and financial consequences for the company. The oil leak has caused BP to lose a noticeable number of its American customers, namely their most loyal consumers. Experian Simmons DataStream shows that between April 26 and June 28, 2010 the percentage of American adults who report going to BP fell from 26.4% to 16.4%, a relative loss of 38% of their client base in just nine weeks. More astounding is the fact that BP’s most loyal consumers (those who said that BP is the gas or service station that they go to most often) declined a relative 56% during the same time. In fact, on June 28, 2010, only 9.5% of adults went to BP most often compared with 21.5% who were loyal to BP the week of the spill. With the flow of oil temporarily ceased and nearing a permanent solution, BP may finally be able to cap the flow of bad publicity and to reverse some of their loss in market share. Experian Simmons will continue to monitor this and other important consumer trends and share those findings here.
According to data released by Standard and Poor’s and Experian for S&P/Experian Consumer Credit Default Indices, “default rates nationally fell in May across the board.” Defaulting balances declined among all types of credit lines, including bank card loans, first and second mortgage default rates and auto loans. Further research from Experian Simmons DataStream underscores this trend. Between November 17, 2008 and May 10, 2010, there has been a 15% increase in the share of major credit card holders who report usually paying their credit card balance in full each month. This increase is reflected among both VISA and MasterCard credit card holders, during the same time period. Specifically, the percent of VISA and MasterCard credit card holders who usually pay their credit card balance in full increased by 25% and 17%, respectively. During the later part of 2008 and much of the first half of 2009, MasterCard holders were the more likely to pay their card balance in full each month. Today, however, VISA card holders are the more likely to pay the full amount due. As of May 10, 2010, 42% of VISA card holders usually paid their VISA balance in full compared with 40% of MasterCard holders. American consumers’ attempt to become solvent shows that personal financial responsibility standards are increasing in response to the recent financial crisis.
