Liliendahl on Data Quality

It is never too late to start up, I have heard. So despite I usually brag about having +35 years of experience in the intersection of business and IT and a huge been done list in Data Quality and Master Data Management (MDM) which can get me nice consultancy engagements, a certain need on the market has been puzzling in my head for some time.

Before that, when someone asked me what to do in the MDM space I told them to create something around sharing master data between organisations. Most MDM solutions are sold to a given organization to cover the internal processes there. There are not many solutions out there that covers what is going on between organizations.

But why not do that myself? – with the help of some younger people.

You may have noticed, that I during the last year have been writing about something called the Product Data Lake. This has until recently mostly just been a business concept that could be presented on power point slides. So called slideware. But now it is becoming real software being deployed in the cloud.

Right now a gifted team in Vietnam, where I also am this week, is building the solution. We aim to have it ready for the first trial subscribers in August 2016. We will also be exhibiting the solution in London in late September, where we will be at the Start-up Alley in the combined Customer Contact, eCommerce and Technology for Marketing exhibition.

At home in Denmark, some young people are working on our solution too as well as the related launching activities and social media upbeat. This includes a LinkedIn company page. For continuous stories about our start-up, please follow the Product Data Lake page on LinkedIn here.
