Rethinking Data: From Cost Centre to Compounding Asset

As organisations accelerate their data and AI strategies, a persistent challenge continues to undermine progress. 

Not access to data, but how effectively it can be reused.

Across industries, teams are still rebuilding the same pipelines, models, and dashboards again and again. The result? Rising costs, slower innovation, and fragmented insights.

This podcast explores a fundamentally different approach.

Treating data as a reusable product, designed once, used everywhere, and continuously delivering value.

Join David Howell, Editor-in-Chief of Silicon UK, in conversation with Stephan Liozu, Chief Monetization Officer and Senior Vice President, as they unpack why data product reusability is becoming a board-level priority.

 Why This Matters Now

Reusable data products are not just a technical upgrade; they reshape the economics of data.

Organisations that get this right:

✳️   Reduce duplication and operational cost

✳️   Accelerate delivery of data and AI initiatives

✳️   Improve consistency and trust in data

✳️   Unlock scalable, enterprise-wide value

Those that don't?
 
They remain trapped in cycles of rebuilding, unable to fully realise the value of their data investments.

 What You'll Learn

In this episode, you'll discover:

✅  Why executives are reframing data reuse as a strategic imperative

✅  The gap between the promise of "data as a product" and operational reality

✅  How leading organisations reduce the 60–80% data preparation burden

✅   Where most companies underinvest in their data product strategy, and the consequences

✅   The cultural and organisational barriers that quietly kill reuse

✅   How to rethink funding models and success metrics to incentivise reuse

✅   What high-performing organisations do differently to govern reusable data products at scale

✅   The first critical steps to shift from project-based analytics to reusable data products

✅   How reusability unlocks the next wave of AI and advanced analytics

 Start Building Data That Scales

If there's one takeaway from this conversation, it's this:
 
Data product reusability is a strategic choice, not a technical optimisation.

Organisations that embrace it move faster, spend smarter, and scale AI with confidence.
