Fresh Insights from the Data Space Cluster

We're excited to share the latest outcome from the Data Space Cluster—a joint publication titled “Navigating Challenges and Strategies for Data Sharing and Integration in the Data Space Era”.

Led by CyclopsProject and co-created by DS2, CEDAR EU, PLIADES, and NOUS, this publication emerged from a dynamic workshop at #DataWeek2025. The session brought together diverse stakeholders to identify the toughest hurdles to seamless data sharing and integration across sectors.

From technical barriers to governance gaps, participants unpacked key challenges—and explored forward-thinking strategies that pave the way for stronger collaboration, innovation, and societal impact through Data Spaces.
