1st International Conference on FAIR Digital Objects

FAIR is about making data findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable both for humans and machines. FAIR digital objects have shown key capabilities to simplify and scale the use of data across domains, increase trust in data and ease the handling of high volumes of information.

Successful management, exchange and interpretation of knowledge in an ever-growing information tsunami will depend on highly automated methods of dealing with combined data. This will require artificial intelligence and also robust and informative ways to store and disseminate data and metadata.

The 1st International Conference of FAIR Digital Objects (FDOs) will bring together for the first time at this scale key technical, scientific, industry, and science-policy stakeholders with the aim to boost the development and implementation of FDOs worldwide and transform the Internet into more than just a data space: into a meaningful data space.

On 28th October, Ingrid Dillo, DANS & FAIR-IMPACT coordinator, will join a panel discussion on ‘Governance of data spaces: control and ownership of data services and infrastructures. The possible roles of the FDO Forum", bringing in the provider perspective.

Ingrid will join Ana Casino (Executive Director, Consortium of European Taxonomic Facilities - CETAF), Mark Leggott (Director International Relations, Digital Research Alliance, CA) and Shelley Stall (Senior Director at American Geophysical Union’s Data Leadership Program, also member of RDA)

More details about the conference and the panel discussion will be available over the next weeks.
