Join DATAMITE at the EBDVF 2025
The European Big Data Value Forum (EBDVF) 2025 will take place in Copenhagen from 12 to 14 November. Organised by the Big Data Value Association (BDVA), the EBDVF is the flagship event of the European Big Data, Value and Data-Driven AI Research and Innovation community. It brings together industry professionals, business developers, researchers and policymakers from Europe and other regions of the world to advance policy actions and industrial and research activities in the areas of data and AI.
DATAMITE will be there for the third consecutive year, and we are very excited to be back! The project is proud to be a sponsor of the EBDVF 2025. As part of our sponsorship activities, we will have a booth where we will share the progress and main achievements of the DATAMITE project to date with the hundreds of visitors and participants expected to attend.
In addition to the Booth, DATAMITE is organising and hosting a session entitled 'Data Interoperability and Monetisation: Framework, Use Cases and Market Adoption', taking place on Thursday 13 from 14:00 to 15:00. This session will present the DATAMITE framework, which facilitates data monetisation, interoperability and trading across sectors. We will present real-world examples in which the framework has been validated and supported the development of the Data Maturity Model. We will also demonstrate how some of its components are already being offered as services by partners and incorporated into market-oriented solutions that support businesses. Finally, a panel discussion will explore how these solutions can accelerate adoption and market impact, translating technical innovation into real business value.
As we did for the 2024 edition, we will be hosting a session with the EUDATA+ cluster, as well as sharing a 6-square-metre booth. Taking place on Thursday 13 from 11:00 to 13:00, the session will build on last year's topic by exploring the data lifecycle in depth, from generation to monetisation. It will showcase innovative tools and solutions and explain how they can enhance companies' data management and monetisation strategies.
Don't miss this opportunity to meet our talented team in person. We look forward to seeing you in Copenhagen!

The Open Source Community Day 2025
The Open Source Community Day, organised by the Eclipse Foundation in collaboration with EUCloudEdgeIoT.eu took place in Madrid on 23 and 24 September. The event offered EU-funded projects a unique opportunity to engage directly with the open source community, providing a space to connect, collaborate and exchange ideas. Contributors, researchers, developers and innovators from the open source community gathered in Madrid to explore the future of digital technologies and collaborative development.
As part of the event's dissemination and collaboration activities, a community session was hosted where participants could present their ongoing research, open-source initiatives and project outcomes. DATAMITE was one of the projects presented by the Eclipse Foundation, as they are part of our consortium. David Remón and his colleagues at Eclipse used the DATAMITE trifold to engage with the community at the event, talking to other researchers and developers about DATAMITE. “They were very interested in our open-source strategy and how we collaboratively built the framework”, he reflects.
Open Source Community Day 2025 was a vibrant gathering of individuals united by their passion for open-source software and technology. During the event, the importance of collaboration across borders and industries in Europe was emphasised, as was the role of open-source software in enabling researchers, developers and industries to build innovative, secure and sustainable solutions. “DATAMITE is built on open source principles, and by taking part in this initiative we strengthen links with other research projects and developers focused on data as a driver of innovation and growth in a trusted and fair manner”, says David Remón.

International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications and Innovations (AIAI) 2025
The 2025 International Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications and Innovations (AIAI) was held from 26 - 29 June in a Hybrid format, in Limassol, Cyprus, and online. AIAI is a renowned international conference that brings together scientists and researchers each year to exchange the latest and most cutting-edge advances in the field. Its programme includes workshops that provide an ideal setting for the presentation of leading-edge conference papers. For the second consecutive year, DATAMITE was well represented at the conference by its partner, OTE.
Organised by OTE Group of Companies (HTO) and dozens of EU scientific partners, the 'B5G – Putting Intelligence to the Network Edge' (B5G-PINE) workshop, was the main event where DATAMITE was represented. This workshop aimed to disseminate knowledge obtained from ongoing EU projects in the wider thematic area of 'B5G/6G Innovative Activities – Putting Intelligence to the Network Edge', focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) in modern 5G/B5G telecommunications infrastructures. As part of the workshop, a poster about the project was displayed throughout the conference, and OTE presented two papers related to DATAMITE.
"Towards a Data Monetization Maturity Model", where authors introduced DMMM, the first scientifically grounded maturity model designed to help organizations assess, plan, and evolve their data monetization capabilities. This tool bridges the gap between ambition and actionable strategy. Read it here.
"Transforming Data Management in Telecommunications: The Case Study of OTE Group’s Integration with the DATAMITE Project", where authors shared a real-world framework from the OTE Group's journey in aligning complex, large-scale data ecosystems with DATAMITE's vision—leveraging open-source modularity to enable monetization, interoperability, and streamlined data exchange in telecom.

DATAMITE presents a paper poster at CIRED 2025
The 2025 CIRED - Conference and Exhibition on Electricity Distribution took place from 16 to 19 June in Geneva, Switzerland. With over 1,600 people attending the conference and 3,000 people visiting the exhibition, CIRED is one of the world’s leading energy conferences. The event featured talks from leading industry figures, roundtable debates, research information forums based on R&D, and guided poster tours.
Ricardo Henriques from E-REDES travelled to Geneva to present a paper poster on DATAMITE at the exhibition. The paper, titled 'Sharing Electricity Distribution Data Through Energy Data Spaces Using the DATAMITE Framework', explores how Distribution System Operators (DSOs) can share electricity distribution data via Energy Data Spaces using the DATAMITE Framework. It does so by examining the use cases implemented by E-REDES in Portugal to enhance its open data portal and test the sharing of data products with external stakeholders, and by HEDNO in Greece to enable data exchange between a DSO and an energy service provider for system planning enhancement.
Ricardo Henriques presented the poster paper on behalf of the authors of the paper: himself; Pedro Boto (E-REDES); Savvas Manikas, and Konstantinos Kontodimas (both from HEDNO); Jordi Arjona (ITI); Vasilis Siopidis, Konstantinos Votis and Dimitrios Tzovaras (all from CERTH); Valentín Sánchez (TECNALIA); and Ilknur Çulani, Silvia Castellvi, and Sonia Jiménez (all from the International Data Spaces Association).
