The Data Week 2023, which is the spring gathering of the European Big Data and Data Driven AI research and innovation communities, took place from the 13th to the 19th of June 2023 in Luleå, Sweden. During the event, the participants share knowledge and results, discuss topics of common interest, find synergies, build new collaborations, and identify new challenges and recommendations. Data Week is also a great opportunity to link the communities and their results to European policies and market needs and brings European initiatives and activities closer to local communities.
On the 13th of June, Liliana Beltrán, Project Manager at ITI – Instituto Tecnológico de Informática representing DATAMITE participated in the session on “Technological Enablers for the Next-Level Data Economy”. The session brought together four Horizon Europe projects (UPCAST, FAME, PISTIS and DATAMITE) that build digital technologies, solutions and interoperable frameworks for data markets and the data economy. The focus of the session was on the technologies, solutions and frameworks that the four projects are developing. Technologies that facilitate the collection, sharing, storing, processing, trading and reusing of data in compliance with the legal framework and satisfying the needs, expectations and rights of the data providers, brokers, users and data subjects.
We had the opportunity to explore the main challenges and barriers to data monetisation, and discuss DATAMITE’s main objective. We also presented our modular, open-source and multi-domain Framework. “One highlight of the panel was our vision for the future of the Data Economy and the paramount importance of robust use cases. We firmly believe that to embark on a new era of the data economy, it is crucial to prioritize efforts in enhancing data quality. High-quality data is a fundamental aspect of successful data monetization”, explains Liliana Betrán.
It was an honor to share the session with other fascinating projects that are shaping the future of the data landscape. Together, we are pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the Data Economy.
Data Week 2023 is co-organised by BDVA and EUHubs4Data project in collaboration with the Research Institutes of Sweden (RISE). Data Week is the combination of local and regional events organised by the BDVA i-Spaces [i-Spaces] in the framework of the EUHubs4Data project and the main European event.
