Want to move faster with a strategic view on your data? Every quarter, Elias zooms in on the market developments that impact your data-driven organisation.

Only two per cent of Dutch organisations have a mature data strategy, according to HPE research. The other 98 per cent? They are building their AI ambitions on quicksand. Because without a data strategy, AI does not become a smart assistant, but one that leaks sensitive business information, increases the risk of GDPR fines, and makes your organisation dependent on tech giants who do not share your interests.

What problem are you actually trying to solve? It sounds simple, but it’s exactly the question many organisations skip – and why their data projects fail. Hotel chain citizenM experienced this first-hand: their app seemed to be failing, until the data told a very different story. We supported citizenM in arriving at these insights.

AI is moving into operations, data needs to be faster and more reliable, and the EU AI Act is turning governance into a boardroom topic. Five trends are putting data strategy under pressure in 2026. “Those who fail to make choices will lose ground to competitors who do focus.”

The scenario is all too familiar: the boardroom has approved a data strategy, dashboards have been designed, and concepts for AI projects have been drafted. Months later, the plans are still sitting on the shelf, and no one has touched the dashboard since the presentation. What went wrong? “Technology can only help you if you know what you want it to help you with,” says Elias Hassing (Data Strategist at Digital Power).

Does your organisation collect lots of data, but the step from insight to action often stalls? You’re not alone. Most companies struggle at every organisational level, from the boardroom to the frontline, to actually turn data into effective decisions. Data-driven decision-making offers the solution: a framework that brings together data, people, and technology so you can decide faster and better.

You will discover how to determine where you currently stand, which factors play a role in this, and which next steps you can take to get more value out of data.

Due to recent geopolitical developments, such as heightened concerns about privacy and legislation, many organisations are reassessing their dependence on US-based software solutions. At the same time, the call for greater control over data and reduced reliance on external parties is growing louder.

Are your IT department and the business working at cross purposes? Your organisation isn’t the only one. Many organisations struggle with business–IT alignment: bringing business objectives and technological initiatives into line.

Do you have access to more and more data, but find that better decisions are failing to materialise? You are not the only one. We see in many organisations that the growing amount of data actually leads to confusion and indecision. This data paradox - more data, but not automatically more insight - is a major challenge for anyone who wants to work in a truly data-driven way.

In this interview, he shares his vision, experience and results from working with Digital Power.

Due to geopolitical developments and growing concerns about data sovereignty, more and more businesses are looking to reduce their dependence on US cloud providers.

At Ennatuurlijk, we have been working with the Data & Analytics team to deliver on their data strategy. When their Product Owner unexpectedly became unavailable, we were able to step in quickly. What began as a temporary replacement grew into a partnership in which we shaped the organisation’s data-driven ways of working together.

In an era marked by international tensions, rising concerns about privacy, security, and technological sovereignty, you may find yourself re-evaluating your reliance on US technology solutions. The drive towards digital independence isn't just a political goal, but may also be a pragmatic business necessity.

“Our current focus with data is mostly operational. To truly unlock its value, we want to start using it more strategically – to make better-informed decisions with the right focus. But where do we begin? What’s the best approach, and how do we build internal support? What is our current level of data maturity, and what steps should we take to grow?” This was the question posed by an international medical device manufacturer who asked us to carry out a data maturity scan as the starting point for their journey.

Ennatuurlijk supplies sustainable heat and cold via heat networks to consumers and businesses. The internal Data & Analytics team is tasked with making the organisation data-driven.
