Data Ecosystems

Tech Day

Data spaces are essential for confident, cross-company value creation. In the future of the global, data-driven economy, data ecosystems will be key technologies. GAIA-X and CATENA-X are successful examples of such ecosystems, with numerous companies from the mobility and automotive industries actively involved.

At the Tech Day Data Ecosystems, we will discuss strategies to help companies successfully integrate into data ecosystems. We will discuss the challenges that must be overcome and present practical approaches that can serve as best practices. We will also identify opportunities to further optimize the use of data spaces. Participating in this event will allow you to contribute to your company's digital transformation.

 

Our topics

  • Introduction to data ecosystems and overview
  • Cui bono – business models in the data ecosystem
  • Discussion of industrial applications
  • Further development of technologies and fields of application
