PolKEN Webinar: Briefing on European Strategy for Data

The “European strategy for data”, published by the European Commission on 19th February 2020, is a key proposal which sets out a range of policy measures, digital solutions, and funding programmes to encourage data sharing and re-use of data across Europe by establishing European data spaces.

Eurogeographics provided a briefing on this important paper and encouraged an exchange of views and explained how we might respond.
