The first Coffee with Simpl session, held on Friday 17 April, brought the community together for an open exchange on trust, interoperability and real world data space initiatives.
This edition brings together the latest updates across the Simpl Programme, from technical progress on Simpl-Open to new learning resources and upcoming community moments.
What’s next for Simpl-Open?
The Simpl Annual Community Event returns this year on 10 December in Brussels, bringing together the community to connect, share progress and shape what comes next for data spaces.
Simpl-Open was featured at Tech-X through a presentation focused on identity, trust, and access management in data spaces.
Simpl-Live has started a new phase of collaboration with selected European data spaces and initiatives, including LDS, SCDS, EOSC, DestinE, PPDS, and EHDS2.
We are excited to announce the launch of the new Development Status page, your central hub to follow Simpl-Open’s progress and get a clear view of what lies ahead.
Two new learning experiences are now available on the Simpl Academy, designed to support both technical and governance roles working with data spaces.
Across four recent sprints, Release 3.0 delivers improvements in onboarding, data services, platform and governance.
What open-source AI and ML tools are being used across data space initiatives today?
We are piloting a relaxed one hour drop in online where the community can ask questions, share feedback and speak directly with programme subject matter experts. No long presentations. Not recorded.
Simpl attended the recent Data Sharing Festival held on 18-19th March in Rotterdam. In the opening talk, Ana Juan Ferrer (DG Connect) introduced Simpl and shared the latest updates from the programme.
At the Annual Community Event, we heard a common question: where does Simpl fit in the wider landscape, and what makes it different? Simpl‑Open provides an integrated open‑source middleware layer that helps initiatives stand up interoperable, sovereign data sharing. The approach is to integrate proven components and build what is missing, so contributors avoid reinventing the wheel.
“The Marketplace” was a new feature at this year’s Annual Community Event.
We have two useful updates to share on the Simpl website.
Add a new monthly drop-in to add to your diary.
The Simpl community has grown fast following the Annual Community Event, and we now have a dedicated LinkedIn Group where members can connect, share insights and stay close to what is coming next.
