By Alex Galbraith, CTO, Cloud Services at SoftwareOne

Working with data can be a blessing and a curse. While it is the definitive factor that empowers digital transformation efforts, aids decision-making and stores an organisation’s most valuable and confidential assets, dealing with data is often a business’ greatest challenge. As the world’s dependence on data grows and the threat of cyberattacks increases, businesses need solutions that will them manage, govern, and safeguard their data more efficiently – and this is where digital sovereignty comes in.

A diversified portfolio is one of the key metrics of investment success. The greater this diversity, the more likely it will outperform the market, and the savviest investors are often looking for new opportunities: the rising stars among new asset classes. Investment in art is certainly not a new concept, but what makes it unique is that it often has low correlation with other major asset classes, meaning lower overall price volatility (https://apo-opa.co/3UpJknE). It’s the sure bet, sometimes with incredible escalating value, especially for those opting to invest in blue-chip artists (https://apo-opa.co/3Uq6YQQ) renowned artists whose work demands high prices in the art market).
