Unlocking the potential of mobility data is essential to accelerating the transition towards more sustainable and smarter mobility. Building a common European data space for mobility will facilitate access, pooling and sharing of transport and mobility data, building on existing and future initiatives.

The first call of the Digital Europe Programme (DIGITAL) is planned to open in November 2021. Among others, it envisages to fund a preparatory action for the common European mobility data space. This preparatory action is planned to be implemented through a Coordination and Support Action (CSA) and, among others, will identify existing mobility data sharing initiatives, gaps, overlaps and potential common building blocks.

This information workshop, organised by the European Commission, jointly by the Directorate-General for Communications Networks, Content & Technology (DG CONNECT) and the Directorate-General for Mobility & Transport (DG MOVE), will provide details on the call for a preparatory action under DIGITAL. The workshop will give stakeholders the opportunity to share their views on the key existing initiatives, opportunities and challenges for building the common European mobility data space.

Registration to follow: Participants will need to register to participate in the virtual information session by 29 November 2021.
