SEMIC2022, the annual semantic interoperability conference, was held on 6th December 2022 at the Square Meeting Center in Brussels! This year’s topic was “SEMIC: Data Spaces in an Interoperable Europe”. The conference is organised by the Interoperability Unit of DIGIT of the European Commission, in collaboration with the Czech Presidency of the Council of the EU.

The central focus of #SEMIC2022 revolves around the implementation of data spaces, bringing together concrete use cases from both the public and the private sector, to understand opportunities and challenges and to overcome obstacles in implementing data spaces, also clarifying how interoperability within and across sectors can be achieved.

The rich programme included:

– Success stories: Concrete data stories from different Member States to demonstrate how aggregated data can play a key role in gathering business intelligence and risk management processes.
– Use cases: Parallel sessions to present technical deep dives based on use cases and semantic specifications.
– Knowledge sharing: High-profile policy makers to talk about their experience in the sharing & reuse of data
– Academic angel: Novel academic research to be showcased at the Interoperability Academy Speaking Corner
