Description

Anastasios Nikolakopoulos and co-authors build a starter dataspace for Europe's public sector in a 2026 implementation paper. Europe wants public bodies to share data across borders in a trusted, controlled way. Many offices lack the means to join such systems from scratch.

Their minimum viable dataspace joins three parts: an attribute service, an exchange agent, and open connector blocks. Pilots ran the setup in real settings with checks on identity, usage terms, and access rights. Early feedback found the system usable and ready for wider trials. The work lays a base that smaller offices can grow into the wider European data network.
