I. ABOUT US

We are a diverse group of organizations united by a common goal: to deploy the European Data Space for Smart Communities.

The European Data Space for Smart Communities (DS4SSCC-DEP) Project maintains this website to enhance public access to information about its results and activities. Our goal is to keep this information updated. The Consortium has the right to interrupt service for internal reasons, e.g. maintenance, and is not obligated to make services available online without interruption.

The DS4SSCC-DEP consortium is composed of 8 partners (beneficiaries) across Europe, each bringing unique expertise and value to our project. The consortium is sustained through a number of supporting partners (Living-in EU sister networks) as well as 5 ready, willing and able example pilot groups.
