The Data Governance Network’s Working Paper No 22, authored by Rahul MatthanPrakhar Misra, and Harshita Agrawal, explores various financing models for the digital ecosystem within the Indian setup. It uses the market / non-market failure distinction and applies it to different parts of the ecosystem, outlined in the Open Digital Ecosystems framework. It also identifies which form of financing — public, private and philanthropic — is suitable for the relevant component of the digital world, such as data registries, exchanges, open stacks, marketplaces, co-creation platforms and information access portals.
