Discover open data and data sharing initiatives and examples from
Europe and beyond!
The European Data Portal [http://www.europeandataportal.eu/] (EDP) is
collaborating with the Support Centre for Data Sharing
[http://www.eudatasharing.eu/] (SCDS) in organising a series of
sessions held every fortnight titled DATA TALKS. The sessions are
created to learn more about open data and data sharing. In every
session, an expert in the open data and data sharing space is invited
to share their experience and expertise on a topic with the audience.
During these sessions, an informal and open discussion is initiated in
order to gain insights about different data-related topics. Everyone
can join these online discussions, free of charge.

_UPCOMING DATA TALKS_

The upcoming Data Talk sessions will be hosted on Microsoft Teams,
shared on the EDP and SCDS channels and promoted on our social media.
Join the session to learn more, and we look forward to seeing you
there!
