Full-Day Workshop
Together with Smart Flanders and with the support of EIT Digital and CEDUS City Enabler, OASC organises the full day workshop “Enabling the City: A Common Approach to Open Data and the Digital Transition”.
In three dedicated sessions we will
- dive into best practices and lessons learnt from successful regional smart city initiatives,
- share experiences on (linked) open data from a city perspective in a hands-on workshop, and
- explain how the OASC Minimal Interoperability Mechanisms (MIMs) support cities in procuring data-driven services based on standards.
