ED-X is one of the national Test Beds featured on June 27 at TECNET Trends.

This event is a meeting point for professionals, entrepreneurs, investors, and technology enthusiasts, and will feature a presentation of the ED-X Test Bed. This Test Bed, part of the 9th Portuguese Test Beds Meeting, is aligned with the guiding principles of the European data initiatives — Gaia-X and the IDSA (International Data Spaces Association).

The stand, promoted by TICE.PT in collaboration with Portugal’s leading telecommunications operators — Altice Labs, Vodafone, NOS, and IP Telecom — and led by Sooma, will demonstrate how it is possible to build trustworthy and interoperable data ecosystems that respect users’ digital sovereignty, one of the core pillars of the Gaia-X European initiative.

ED-X also supports secure data sharing, following the reference standards of the IDSA, ensuring control, transparency, and interoperability among participants from different Data Spaces.

The consortium is proud to contribute to a more autonomous European digital future, and this stand is an opportunity to show that Portugal includes a data-driven economy in its national strategy.
