The European Commission & FIWARE Supporting a European Data Economy!
The FIWARE Foundation has warmly welcomed the European Commission's initiative on the free flow of data and support the principles laid out in the Communication, notably on minimising the lock-in effects and promoting the use of open APIs for reliable identification and exchange of data.
We invite you to read their press release:
FIWARE and CEF Digital 2018 recently announced a collaboration agreement. Both are collaborating to accelerate the testing of secure message exchange in different sectors. A first CEF building block – eDelivery – will become integrated as Generic Enabler of the FIWARE Platform, allowing developers, service providers and experimenters to deploy and run it on the FIWARE Lab, and to download and deploy it from the FIWARE Catalogue. CEF makes available up to EUR 300 million in grants until 2020. These grants are used for digital enablement projects, many of which use CEF eDelivery.
The FIWARE team, in partnership with the FIWARE Foundation, is organising an Open Day to be held in Brussels on 7 March 2017 in the European Commission's Charlemagne building.
CEF Digital 2018 is the main EU programme supporting the establishment of trans-European digital infrastructures following the Digital Single Market strategy. Visit CEF Digital 2018 for more!
