Most of business's intangible value is wrapped up in a business's data. To overlook this primary source of value as part of a corporate valuation is an egregious oversight.
At DataDiligence, we believe that data, as an ecosystem, represents intrinsic value and competitive advantage. But, data is rarely validated or valued with the same rigour as other key commercial assets.
We aim to change this.

VALIDATION : VALUATION : VALUE CREATION
Data is an
ecosystem
We view data as wildly broader than bits and bytes of information.
Rather, we believe data is an ecosystem.
We validate and value data across a structured Framework, comprising four dimensions.
Only by holistically assessing a company’s data, related processes and capacity, can investors and executives make better informed decisions to identify the next best step to genuinely becoming data driven for sustained value creation.
We support
INVESTORS
seeking to underpin an investment thesis and/or enhance the data strategies and value of their investments
MANAGEMENT TEAMS
wishing to realise the incrementally significant gains of maturing their data approach, processes and capabilities
CORPORATE FINANCE & INVESTMENT ADVISORS
who are providing professional services, often into M&A, where they require specialist data analytics expertise to validate an investment case
We believe the insights gained through our Data Validation Framework result in significantly better decision making and long-term value creation.
