On 6 October 2026, DOME Marketplace brings together providers, customers, marketplaces and EU institutions in Brussels for a focused half-day event on the future of Europe’s trusted digital services ecosystem.
About the event
Europe has the technology. The challenge is making it discoverable, trustworthy and easy to procure across borders. This event gathers the people and organisations working to solve exactly that — through an afternoon of keynotes, panel discussions and a live demonstration of DOME Marketplace.
Event details
6 October 2026, at 14:00–17:30, followed by a cocktail reception at The Square — Rue Mont des Arts 1, 1000 Brussels, Belgium
Who should attend
This event is designed for Cloud, Edge and AI service providers looking to grow their European presence, procurement and digital transformation decision-makers from the public and private sector, marketplace operators and platform builders, and representatives from EU institutions and industry associations working on Europe’s digital services ecosystem.
What we will discuss
Among the topics on the agenda: why capable European providers still struggle to become the natural choice for customers; how trust, sovereignty and European origin influence real buying decisions; what it takes to make procurement faster, fairer and more accessible; and how visibility, federation and trusted credentials can become genuine commercial routes to market.
Agenda
Opening Keynote — Europe’s Trusted Digital Services Market: Where Are We Today?
A high-level introduction to Europe’s digital services landscape, setting the strategic and policy context for the afternoon. Why trusted European market access, procurement and ecosystem connectivity matter now.
Panel 1 — What Is Preventing the Adoption of European Digital Services?
Europe’s core challenge is not a lack of technological capability, but the difficulty of discovering, evaluating and purchasing European services. This panel examines the real barriers to adoption — from visibility and channel access to procurement complexity and buyer confidence.
Panel 2 — Buying Digital Services with Confidence: Trust & Procurement
How can organisations reduce supplier-selection risk without making procurement unnecessarily slow or inaccessible to smaller providers? This panel explores what buyers genuinely need, and how reusable, verifiable supplier information can shorten qualification and due diligence.
Panel 3 — How Can European Providers Scale Through Visibility, Federation and Trust?
What do European providers need to grow beyond domestic markets? This panel examines whether visibility, trusted information and connected ecosystems can become genuine commercial routes to market — and how federation can extend reach while preserving each participant’s identity and governance.
DOME Keynote — Connecting Europe’s Trusted Digital Ecosystems
A focused keynote presenting DOME Marketplace as a practical response to the challenges identified in the preceding sessions — covering service discoverability, trusted and comparable information, procurement enablement and cross-border visibility.
Live Demonstration — DOME Customer Journey: From Discovery to Procurement
A pre-recorded demonstration with live commentary showing what a customer can actually do on DOME Marketplace — from discovering and comparing services to trust assessment and procurement initiation.
Closing Panel — Building Momentum Across Europe’s Trusted Service Ecosystem
A forward-looking discussion on what it will take to build lasting momentum across Europe’s digital services ecosystem — bringing together the perspectives of providers, customers, marketplaces and institutions.
Cocktail Reception
Following the sessions, all attendees are invited to continue the conversation over drinks.
