Information session on a Common European Agricultural Data Space

Digital technologies are leading to transformations and are enabling major innovations across all sectors of the economy. The European Strategy for Data, published in February 2020, aims to establish a Single Market for data, where data can flow between countries and sectors, and can be accessed and used easily, respecting European values and rules. A Common European Agriculture Data Space is one of the data spaces identified in this strategy. 

A preparatory action for the data space for agriculture will be launched under the Digital Europe Programme (DIGITAL). This will be implemented through a Coordination and Support Action (CSA) that will explore possible options and conceptual approaches for the future deployment of this data space involving stakeholders and Member States.

This information session, organised by DG CONNECT and DG AGRI, will provide details of the preparatory action that will be launched in DIGITAL Call 1, the first call under the first Work Programme of the Digital Europe Programme, which is expected to open in November 2021. The session will provide the opportunity to discuss for instance, programme-technical questions, such as eligibility, or aspects related to the possible scope of the action. Moreover, the session is intended to provide an opportunity for matchmaking of potential consortium partners.

Register here (by 29 November 2021) to take part in the virtual information session. 

The event takes place on 2 December from 9:30 - 12:00.
