The Data Governance Act and Data-Driven Policymaking: Impact and Practical Implementations

Date: 
Tuesday, 16 February, 2021

Thank you for joining us!

Webinar recording and presentations are now available here.

You can read the post webinar report that we prepared together with the PolicyCloud project.


The proposed regulation on European data govenance will foster the availability of data for use by increasing trust in data intermediaries and strengthening data-sharing mechanisms across the EU.

Policy Cloud, Cyberwatching.eu, DUET, and URBANITE invite big data and cloud solutions providers and policymakers from industrial, commercial and public realities to an expert briefing on the perceived scope of the Data Governance Act, the implication for cybersecurity and GDPR, and the practical ramifications for public and business administrations.

We are defining today a truly European approach to data sharing. Our new regulation will enable trust and facilitate the flow of data across sectors and Member States while putting all those who generate data in the driving seat. With the ever-growing role of industrial data in our economy, Europe needs an open yet sovereign Single Market for data. Flanked by the right investments and key infrastructures, our regulation will help Europe become the world's number one data continent." Commissioner for International Market, Thierry Breton, 25 November 2020.
