Abstract

Digital transformation allows organizations to increase data transparency, but unfortunately, organizations still encounter obstacles to data sharing as they fear the loss of control over data. Data spaces as cross-organizational data infrastructures can potentially enhance organizations' control over their data. However, the adoption of data spaces has yet to be fully investigated. Therefore, this study attempts to address this gap by applying a Design Science Research (DSR) approach for developing an artefact to support the adoption of data spaces. We designed and evaluated the framework through expert interviews. As a result, we propose a final data space adoption framework comprising 14 factors originating from the Technological-Organizational-Environment (TOE) framework. The framework contributes to the existing body of knowledge regarding influencing factors and supports the adoption of data spaces integrating data sovereignty within organizations.
