Purpose & Scope
This webinar offers practical insights into how data spaces are already being applied in the agri-food sector — and what role they can play in enabling secure, efficient, and cross-border data sharing. Organised within the framework of agrifoodTEF, with contributions from the Flemish and Spanish nodes, this session introduces the basic concepts of European data spaces and highlights their value through a real-world example: DjustConnect, the local operational data space in Flanders. It also explores how EDIHs can support businesses and public actors in engaging with data sharing initiatives. Participants will see real-life examples of cross-border data exchange from Belgium, France, and Finland, and get a glimpse of the future of Common European Agricultural Data Spaces.
Learning objectives
Participants will understand the concept of data spaces and their role within the European digital landscape, recognise the value they bring to agri-food stakeholders, learn how EDIHs can support data-sharing initiatives, and explore real-life examples of cross-border data exchange and the future of European agricultural data spaces.
