What Are Data Spaces?
Data Space
A Data Space is a secure and regulated environment where different organizations can share and access data in a controlled manner. Its goal is to enable data exchange without compromising privacy, security, or intellectual property rights.
Regulatory Framework
Data spaces operate under a robust regulatory framework that safeguards fundamental rights, including data sovereignty and the ethical and responsible use of data. Participants retain full control over the data they share, and all processes comply with European standards on transparency, regulatory compliance (such as the GDPR), and a citizen-centric approach, ensuring fair and equitable development.
Exchange
This model fosters inter-institutional collaboration and knowledge sharing, creating an ecosystem that supports scientific research, continuous improvement in healthcare, and contributes to social well-being and sustainability.
Collaboration
Data spaces enable efficient collaboration among companies, research institutions, and public administrations. They drive innovation, economic development, and progress in key sectors such as health, science, and technology, all within a framework that guarantees data control, sovereignty, and ethical use.
