European Commission & APIdays: Executive seminars

A new event of the API4IPS series is about to happen. These events are a unique opportunity to foster the dialogue among different API stakeholders: experts, practitioners, decision-makers from the public and private realms.

In the last API4IPS workshop, API stakeholders discussed the role of API in data governance from a European regulatory perspective.

Next 7th of December from 2-5:20 pm CET, our API4IPS team, in collaboration with the APIdays conference organisers, will bring this discussion one step forward. To this end, we have organised a specific track to explore what API legal and organisational practices help build and coordinate the digital interface among actors. This coordination is key to ensuring the creation, stability and flourishing of digital environments, and therefore highly relevant to the European Digital Strategy.

Public and private practitioners will discuss current coordination models, infrastructures, and approaches to comply with the current data sharing legal framework. Experts and participants will exchange their views about enablers and barriers to coordinating public and private digital interfaces, specifically through APIs. You can see the details below

If interested, you can register for the event (here). Once registered; you'll find our workshop session here
