Dear reader, As we step into March, there is plenty to look back on. At the end of January, our first 2026 Community Talk brought experts together to explore DCAT-AP and the Core Vocabularies. In February, the digital-ready policymaking community shared inspiring examples from Bavaria, Denmark and Germany on how to make legislation truly digital-ready from the start. The Open Source Observatory Community Meetup also highlighted how open source adoption is evolving across Europe, reinforcing the value of collaboration and shared solutions. At the same time, March is shaping up to be just as lively. From upcoming webinars on open data as a public good and building interoperable public services, to peer learning sessions on testing and secure communication, there are many opportunities to connect and learn in the weeks ahead. Resources such as the 2025 Digital Public Administration factsheets and fresh insights from Public Sector Tech Watch and the EU GovTech Collection continue to enrich the knowledge base of the Interoperable Europe community. With highlights from SEMIC 2025 still resonating and our LinkedIn community now (over) 4,000 members strong, interoperability across Europe is not only advancing, it is thriving!
