What can be the role of local governments in an emerging data economy ?
This is a question that Rennes Métropole and the government of Catalunya asked themselves. And part of their answer is : building data platforms for the common good. For instance, Rennes is building an open platform for local data - RUDI -, which is part of the European Urban Innovative Actions. (UIA). And the government of Catalunya is exploring the idea of a similar platform... Come and listen to our speakers' experience around data at the local scale, and do not hesitate to ask them your questions.
