TGOA AND RIWI ENTER PARTNERSHIP FOR NEW GLOBAL STUDY
Partnership: TGOA and RIWI join forces for unique study approach.
Meersburg (Germany) and Toronto (Canada), July 2025: Analyst house TGOA and the Canada-based market research platform and global trend-tracking and prediction technology firm RIWI enter an official partnership for a new global study series on the impact of data on business success. By developing the unique approach of the Global Data Impact Index (GDII), TGOA and RIWI lay the foundation for ongoing observation of how data is affecting the global economy at scale. The first edition of the GDII study is expected to be published in fall 2025.
We are excited to announce our new partnership to collaborate on the first global study on the impact of business data. As an analyst house, TGOA has been gathering data on the software market since 2010, observing trends and developments that are shaping technologies and business processes around the world and across the industries. With its unparalleled insights into global businesses, RIWI provides an excellent data source to examine the business use and value of data, both today and into the future. In exchange for RIWI’s high-quality research data, TGOA is looking forward to setting the market data into relevant context with its strong analyst voice.
“For an analyst, actual, reliable, and high-quality data is the holy grail of research – I am so excited to start this partnership with this important and unique project, and I have no doubt that this is just the beginning,” says Carmela Melone, the responsible TGOA analyst for the GDII project.
“At RIWI, we are on a mission to be the most trusted and transparent source of global data and insights. TGOA’s analyst voice will contribute to a 360° view on contemporary data topics that will help business leaders drive their own data value,” says Greg Wong, CEO of RIWI.
This initial joint project is the world’s first global study of data’s impact on business value. The Global Data Impact Index (GDII) is set to explore and monitor the actual impact of data on the business success of companies across different industries and regions of the world. The first edition focuses on businesses in North America and Europe and is expected to be published in fall 2025. For more information on the GDII study, visit: https://www.globaldataimpactindex.com
