IDEA is an independent, executive-led body advancing the global conversation on data architecture and AI readiness.
Working in partnership
Open standards and shared frameworks are essential for reducing the cost of AI adoption and helping organisations use AI responsibly. We are convening a diverse range of enterprise stakeholders to advance research on adapting data strategies for the AI era. Our goal is to work towards industry-wide adoption of open standards that empower organisations of all shapes and sizes to build trusted, vendor-agnostic data foundations. This work aims to provide actionable guidance on how to optimise infrastructure for AI readiness, ensuring compliance and innovation across modern, distributed data architectures.

It is vendor-neutral, independently governed, and committed to producing insight that travels from the research table to the boardroom. IDEA is a hosted programme of the Open Data Institute – one of the world’s leading authorities on the value and ethics of data.
