According to the 2020 Information Seeking and Consumption Study by Outsell, Inc, business professionals share information an average of 16.5 times a week with nine other people. Collaboration across teams drives innovation and fosters better decision making, yet 47% of professionals recently surveyed are either unaware of their organization's copyright policy or unsure of its details.
