Keep the lights on:
The case for treating market data like a utility

Webinar · 10 July 2025 · 15:00 CEST (45 min)

Overview

In this webinar, we explore what would happen if the energy market were as complex as the market data landscape. Switching electricity providers is straightforward because we view electricity as a utility. So why is changing market data vendors so difficult?

We share the story of father Mark, mother and change manager Sophia, and their daughter Lucy, a downstream user who simply wants to use the fridge, as they switch energy providers. We then translate their experience to the world of market data. Following that, we examine the common challenges organisations face when switching data vendors and conclude with three quick start use cases that demonstrate how you can begin working towards vendor independence with ease.

Webinar highlights

  1. The story of Mark, Sophia and Lucy
  2. Market insights on switching data vendors
  3. Three use cases: “Think BIQH, Start Small”
