DIA · Demand Intelligence Agent

Healthcare data monetization, driven by published research demand

Who buys healthcare data, and what do they actually need? Research teams answer that question themselves — in the limitations sections of their papers, in their funded grants, and in the countries their trials cannot reach. DIA, BCONZ's Demand Intelligence Agent, reads that published demand and matches it against a specific dataset.

For a data partner, that turns healthcare data monetization from a guess into an evidence-led conversation: named organisations, the verbatim need they stated, and a need-by-need check of whether your data meets it — through governed, institution-led partnerships in which data is licensed only for defined, approved purposes.

Who needs healthcare data — in their own words

DIA searches for stated data gaps rather than topics. A paper that says its findings came from a single centre, need external validation, or lack under-represented populations is a research team describing the data it needs next. DIA records the exact sentence, the organisation and the date.

Real-world data sources DIA reads

  • Published research limitations in Europe PMC
  • Active funded programmes: NIH RePORTER (US), CORDIS Horizon Europe (EU), UKRI Gateway to Research (UK)
  • Live trials and their site footprints: ClinicalTrials.gov, EU CTIS, ISRCTN

Matching demand to your dataset

Describe a dataset — its diseases, data types, patients, sites, follow-up and origin — and DIA checks every stated need against it. Longer follow-up, a multi-site cohort, imaging, EHR or real-world data: each is marked met, not met or not known, so nobody pitches a dataset for a need it cannot fill.

Responsible healthcare data monetization

DIA never guesses email addresses, scrapes social profiles or uses purchased lists. Contacts are limited to details published so people could be contacted, each stored with its source and lawful basis, and opt-outs are honoured across every search and export.

Frequently asked questions

DIA: common questions

Who buys healthcare data?

Pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, contract research organisations, healthcare AI developers and academic research groups — typically to support drug development, real-world evidence, model training and validation, or population research. DIA identifies the specific organisations whose published work states a need.

Is DIA a healthcare data marketplace?

No. DIA does not list or sell data. It identifies research demand so that data partners and BCONZ can pursue governed, institution-led collaborations where the data stays under the partner's control.

Where does the demand evidence come from?

Public sources only: published limitations in research papers, active grants from NIH, the European Commission and UKRI, and live trials in ClinicalTrials.gov, the EU Clinical Trials Information System and ISRCTN.

How are contacts handled?

Only details published so people could be contacted — such as a paper's corresponding author or a trial's listed study contact — are recorded, together with the source and the lawful basis for using them.
