which, coupled with a strong probusiness environment, has resulted in solid economic (14th) and social (9th) impacts.

Judging maturity requires looking at environment readiness, determining how far governments have provided the necessary legal and regulatory frameworks and ICT infrastructure;

Policymakers should pay particular attention to environment readiness. They should present citizens with a compelling case for the benefits of big data.

Policymakers should establish an environment that facilitates the business viability of the big data sector (such as data

Environment subindex The environment subindex gauges the friendliness of a country's market and regulatory framework in supporting high levels of ICT uptake and the emergence of entrepreneurship and innovation-prone conditions.

A supportive environment is necessary to maximize the potential impacts of ICTS in boosting competitiveness and well-being.

The political and regulatory environment pillar (composed of nine variables) assesses the extent to which the national legal framework facilitates ICT penetration and the safe development of business activities,

taking into account general features of the regulatory environment (including the protection afforded to property rights, the independence of the judiciary,

The business and innovation environment pillar (nine variables) gauges the capacity of the business framework's conditions to boost entrepreneurship,

innovation-conducive environment that generates productivity gains. Consequently, this pillar measures the firm's technology absorption capacity as well as its overall capacity to innovate

The social impacts pillar (four variables) aims to assess the ICT-driven improvements in well-being that result from their impacts on the environment, education, energy consumption, health progress,

The country also comes in 3rd in the environment subindex, with a very robust innovation system.

With the best pro-business and pro-innovation environment worldwide, the city-state continues to obtain the top rank in terms of ICT impacts, notably on the social dimension.

Overall, the very strong performance of Sweden reflects its world-class, affordable (11th) ICT infrastructure (3rd) and a stable and pro-business and innovation environment (15th),

These scores, coupled with an environment highly conducive to innovation and entrepreneurship, result in very high levels of ICT-based innovations and the highest citizen e-participation in the world (1st.

In addition, the country benefits from a stable pro-business and innovation environment (6th) and a government that is aware of the importance of ICTS for the economic and social development of a geographically vast nation with a widely dispersed population.

Those assets, coupled with a stable political and regulatory environment (9th) and excellent conditions for innovation and entrepreneurship (12th), have resulted in outstanding uptake and use of ICTS by businesses (1st) in all their transactions

business and innovation environment (7th) and improvements in its ICT infrastructure (4th), notably in terms of wider access to international Internet bandwidth per user.

Coupled with a probusiness and pro-innovation environment (7th), these result in a strong innovation capacity (5th) and significant ICT-related economic impacts (9th.

Overall, Hong kong SAR enjoys a fairly well developed ICT infrastructure that, coupled with a stable environment conducive to innovation and entrepreneurship (4th), results in good economic (13th) and social (11th) impacts.

which, coupled with a strong probusiness environment, has resulted in solid economic (14th) and social (9th) impacts.

Combined with optimal business conditions and a reliable and efficient political and regulatory environment (4th),

thanks to persistent improvements in its overall business environment (17th) and the perceived quality of its educational system (14th),

Despite a drop of five places this year, driven mainly by a slight deterioration of its business environment (16th

With a well-developed ICT infrastructure (25th) and a good environment for business and innovation (28th), private companies have developed well-functioning e-commerce strategies (6th)

Coupled with other innovation-related investments, such as research and development (R&d) and a favorable business environment (23rd), this results in a good technological performance both in the ICT sector (13th) and in the economy

and has attracted many global ICT companies thanks to its favorable environment for business. As a result, the island boasts good levels of digital connectivity that, coupled with a skilful labor force, has resulted in good economic impacts (18th) derived from technology-related innovations.

However, this improvement is set off by a slight deterioration in the political and regulatory environment (51st) that does not allow for better ICT-related economic (38th)

Persistent weaknesses in Italy's political and regulatory environment (99th), coupled with some significant challenges in its innovation system, hinder the country's capacity to fully leverage ICTS to boost innovation, competitiveness, and well-being.

Weaknesses in the country's political and regulatory environment (114th) coupled with a low capacity to innovate (117th)

Despite this progress, the country continues to suffer from a fairly inefficient political and regulatory environment (100th) and weaknesses in its innovation system

although these could be increased further by addressing some weaknesses in its political and regulatory environment (34th).

renewed business confidence in the political environment may have contributed to this progress. In addition, Japan has achieved marginal improvements in its ICT infrastructure,

Yet further improvements in social and economic impacts could be achieved by incentivizing a more dynamic environment that could, for example, foster innovation through new organizational models (37th.

A more conducive institutional framework, especially the general business and innovation environment (40th), could contribute to delivering better results and boost competitiveness.

The country's regulatory and business environment remains its strongest competitive advantage (2nd overall in the environment subindex, just behind Singapore.

Malaysia maintains relatively competitive regulatory (25th) and business (24th) environments, and its government continues to use ICTS extensively (9th),

The combination of a favorable environment and an overall high level of ICT usage results in high positive economic (30th) and social (25th) impacts.

and the business environment (115th) witnesses a relative 2014 World Economic Forum 1. 1: The Networked Readiness Index 2014 24 The Global Information technology Report 2014 worsening because of excessive bureaucracy and red tape, high taxes (135th),

both through investment in capacity building and infrastructure and through a more open and creative environment that could foster new ideas and business models.

although more significant progress takes place in the environment subindex. Both the political and regulatory environment (68th) and the business environment (62nd) are improving.

The former is driven by stronger perceptions about the effectiveness of the country's institutions with enhanced intellectual property protection (55th), a more efficient legal system (49th),

Its main strengths lie in its relative affordability of ICTS (47th) and its business and innovation environment (45th.

Similarly, the business and innovation environment includes a high level of local competition (41st) as well as low government procurement of advanced technology (105th.

Moreover, the institutional environment does not seem to be particularly conducive (79th) and the government does not appear to be particularly eager to push the digital agenda nationwide (84th).

The environment subindex, both in its political and regulatory component and in its business and innovation component, loses some ground,

and business environment (91st) and its lack of digital infrastructure (119th), which is reflected in low individual usage (121st) and wide gaps in education participation that limit the creation of a wide skill base (101st).

Red tape and corporate tax continue to create a difficult environment for businesses to operate, with almost no improvements since the last assessment.

A significant improvement in the perceived efficiency in the country's legal system and property rights protection drive the political and regulatory environment up to 87th place.

The business and innovation environment is the other main area where Vietnam progresses significantly albeit from a low base (100th this year.

the poor overall quality of the political and regulatory environment (91st) and ICT infrastructure (121st) limit the expansion of the ICT sector,

and in its political and regulatory environment (62nd). Panama's overall capacity to innovate is also still low (50th.

and some weaknesses in the political and regulatory environment (63rd) notably in the effectiveness of lawmaking bodies (140th) and the number of days to enforce a contract (123rd),

coupled with a relatively favorable environment for business (38th), could result in higher economic impacts than those yet achieved.

However, a poor business and innovation environment (135th), coupled with weaknesses in its educational system (121st) notably in the area of math

along with a weak political and regulatory environment (119th) and an excessive number of days to open new businesses (103rd),

Although the development of an expensive (121st) ICT infrastructure (78th) and uptake by individuals (57th) present values above the Latin american average, the severe weaknesses in its business environment (135th) and concerns about the quality

coupled with a positive political and regulatory environment, have resulted in improvements in an affordable (11th) ICT infrastructure and higher levels of ICT users,

Weaknesses in the innovation system, notably in terms of skills development (97th), also affect the country's economic potential (49th) despite its fairly robust political and regulatory environment.

Weaknesses in the innovation and entrepreneurial environment (110th) and a fairly low skills base (98th) also affect the capacity of the country to fully achieve the potential benefits accruing from ICTS.

Benefiting from a pro-business environment, the country also obtains fairly good economic impacts (27th),

Notwithstanding a fairly business friendly environment (23rd) that should continue its efforts to cut red tape (107th

Weaknesses in the political and regulatory environment (115th) and the business and innovation environment (117th) result in a low innovation capacity by Egyptian companies (111th) and thus limited economic (59th) and social

Other challenges include determining how virtualized computing environments may support a reallocation of computing resources.

Moreover, because they rely on governments to provide the requisite environment, they must ask policymakers to create the regulatory framework and information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure to remove external obstacles.

the enablers of environment readiness, the organization's internal capabilities, and the different stages of maturity and sophistication in which big data can be used.

Big data Maturity 2014 World Economic Forum The environment readiness dimension considers how far the relevant governments have enabled organizations in their jurisdiction to use big data freely and productively.

While environment readiness serves as an enabler for big data usage internal capabilities act as critical success factors for organizations seeking to progress through the maturity stages.

Environment readiness: Priorities for policymakers Big data will soon become ubiquitous practice in both the public and private worlds.

Policymakers therefore need to act in a timely manner to promote an environment that is supportive to organizations seeking to benefit from this inevitable progression.

Failure to develop comprehensive environment readiness carries the risk of losing competitive advantage vis-à-vis other countries.

Environment readiness plays a pivotal role in enabling such success, because its effect is far greater than the evolution of individual organizations'internal capabilities

For their part, governments throughout the world need to create a supportive environment for the usage of big data to attract business to their region.

For many companies that have worked in an environment of large datasets, fast-moving information, and data that lack traditional structure, working in an environment of big data is just business as usual.

In this chapter we will discuss how managing the growing challenge of data is not new for a regional healthcare organization in the Midwestern United states

in order to ensure a certain environment that is conducive to investment and market growth. In the next sections we propose several options for regulators

and companies to make the big data environment more certain. IMPLICATIONS FOR REGULATORS AND POLICYMAKERS Regulators will need to address all the above issues

Regulation in any field always works best if it creates a stable environment in which companies and other organizations can operate.

An even a wider take on data protection issues in the big data environment would be beneficial for all parties.

IMPLICATIONS FOR COMPANIES The onus is not just on regulators to build an environment of trust where citizens feel their privacy will be protected properly.

It is by looking at the big picture surrounding big data that we can create the right environment for data-driven innovation,
