Essay from the year 2021 in the subject Business economics - Market research, , language: English, abstract: This paper addresses the dimensions of data as a resource in the 21st century. Data - a term that is no longer unknown in today's age. Rather, they seem to be everywhere, data is collected everywhere in our everyday lives. From the supermarket around the corner to banks to doctor's visits, data is collected everywhere. With the help of new information technology, smartphones, wearables such as watches and other sensors, data collection is being given a whole new reach. Data is collected from the user everywhere and at all times. What is happening around us, where are we going, what time of day are we out and about, who or what are we spending our time with, all this is data that is collected in real time and then analysed. The business with this data is also no longer unknown. Big names like Google, Facebook and Amazon are common. To give a clue to the entire idea: Google is said to have about two trillion users a year. Facebook can boast 2.91 billion users in the third quarter of 2021 and Amazon has 548 million active customer accounts so far this year.
