GRNET is hosting the hybrid inaugural technical control meeting for GovTech4all Pilot 1 on November 4th and 5th at its headquarters in Athens. Over the course of two days, partners GRNET, LANTIC and DINUM, will work together to plan the next steps of the pilot, detail the work to be undertaken, and finalize specific items for development, integration and demonstration.
The primary objective of Pilot 1, “Secure Information in Cross-Border Data Spaces”, is to tackle the technical challenges faced by public sector organizations that require cross-border coordination to provide high-quality services to citizens. These organizations need robust mechanisms for securely collecting and sharing sensitive personal information while ensuring the protection of citizens’ privacy.
Participants will focus on analyzing the use cases for Pilot 1, examining functionality and the effective use of the project outcomes, as well as discussing the methods for demonstrating these outcomes. Additionally, the aim is to gain a deeper understanding of the architectural requirements of these use cases and their associated datasets. The planning and structure of the relative deliverables will also be discussed.
On the second day, building on the outcomes from the first day’s sessions, discussions will shift toward the dissemination and exploitation of the pilot. This includes strategies for enhancing user engagement, fostering collaboration with other projects, and organizing demo days and a concluding event. Sustainability, along with legal and ethical requirements, will also be addressed.
GovTech4all has established its control meeting points as on-site working sessions, bringing together all team members at each partner’s organization to assess the current status and quality of implementations at various stages of development and testing. These meetings are crucial for evaluating whether the pilot is progressing as intended and for identifying any necessary adjustments to achieve our ultimate goals.
The GovTech4All project is a European initiative designed to foster a cohesive GovTech ecosystem across multiple countries. Funded by the Digital Europe Programme, it unites 26 organizations (soon to be 29) from 18 countries (soon to be 20) to innovate and improve public sector technology.
