From Data Spaces to AI Spaces: Driving New Value Creation

By connecting reliable data across entire sectors and applying it to AI-driven decision-making, organizations can tackle societal challenges that are difficult to solve alone and create new business opportunities with greater impact.

As generative AI evolves into agentic AI, the quality of the data being utilized is becoming increasingly critical. Moving forward, connecting industry data across companies and organizations and leveraging it for AI-driven decision-making will enable us to tackle social challenges and create new business opportunities that cannot be solved in isolation.
Building on this foundation of advanced data integration and AI sophistication, we will evolve into an “AI Spaces where knowledge and value are shared, accelerating growth and innovation across the entire ecosystem.

Three Key Strengths of Fujitsu/Uvance in Leading Data Space Implementation

Fujitsu integrates Data Spaces capabilities into its products and services to enable seamless data collaboration across industries and organizations, ensuring secure and trusted sharing. We are developing and implementing use cases in diverse sectors such as manufacturing, finance, and healthcare to demonstrate the business value of Data Spaces. In addition, we provide architecture design and consulting services tailored to enterprise needs, supporting both the build and operation phases. Through these efforts, Fujitsu is contributing to the realization of a data-driven society.

1. Establishing internationally recognized standards and governance frameworks
