DTI Partners

Data portability takes two – both in the obvious practical sense, in that data has a source and a destination for transfer, and in the strategic sense, in that DTI works together with many other organizations to develop ideas and build tools to power a vibrant data transfer ecosystem. We are honored to be a trusted collaborator with many different kinds of institutions, and we take seriously our opportunity to have a significant impact in the technology and policy worlds.

Our partners are our closest allies, and fellow champions of the principles that power DTI and our work. We value their expertise in day-to-day data portability serving end users, and we keep them engaged in our independent activity, as we benefit from the perspective they provide across the spectrum of our work. While we are not a trade association and do not drive our operations through consensus, we recognize the roles that our partners play in the ecosystem and we seek to help them succeed in their efforts to provide effective end user portability solutions. Our partners also pay dues that support our work. In our current operating practices, we consider prospective new partners on an annual basis.

In association with:

DTI works with a number of other organizations in a range of ways. With those that have structured membership, DTI typically participates in an associate or nonprofit role, rarely in a leading or steering capacity. We list these separate, independent organizations here to provide this additional layer of transparency into who we work alongside on a regular basis.
