The next generation European data infrastructure

 

The European GAIA-X project is dedicated to building a networked data infrastructure. The promise is high: data sovereignty, data availability and innovation. Always with a view from the European perspective and a blinking eye across the Atlantic.

So much for the politicians’ vision! But what does this look like in implementation and what are the key questions that need to be answered in the near future?

GAIA-X: Driver of digital innovation in Europe

“With GAIA-X, representatives from business, science and politics on a European level create a proposal for the next generation of a European data infrastructure: a secure, federated system that meets the highest standards of digital sovereignty while promoting innovation. This project is the cradle of an open, transparent digital ecosystem, where data and services can be made available, collated and shared in an environment of trust.” ~ GAIA-X
