Data has become the infrastructure on which modern economies are built. Nowadays, data is vital in every sector, and businesses of every size increasingly depend on it. At the same time, the reuse of open data in Europe still requires further research and implementation efforts to fully express its potential for public and private value creation.
This paper provides a review of the research conducted over the past two decades on how information generated by the public sector and released in an open data format may purposely be re-used by for-profit and not-for-profit private entities.

At the core of the European data strategy are common European data spaces. By providing relevant data infrastructure and governance frameworks, these data spaces should facilitate the pooling and sharing of data within and across sectors in Europe. An online panel was held on 7 June 2023 to discuss the potential of data spaces for Europe’s citizens, businesses and economy and how this changing data-sharing landscape affects the role of data.europa.eu. This report captures the outcomes of the panel discussion.
