Cross Border Data Flows: The impact of data localisation on IoT
This industry report seeks to shed new light on the costs of imposing data localization requirements or other restrictions on cross-border data flows with respect to the important economic growth likely to result from the uptake and adoption of IoT in manufacturing, agriculture and other important sectors of the economy. It chooses 3 large emerging markets in order to showcase its model, namely Brazil, Indonesia and South Africa.
