BigDataEurope aims at developing a Big Data Platform based on 
requirements identified with stakeholders
from these seven H2020 societal challenges: Climate, Energy, Health, 
Transport, Social sciences,
Food and Security. The consortium will engage with these communities to 
identify their big data
technology needs, to design and realize the required ICT infrastructure 
and support the use and deployment
of the platform - maximizing the opportunities of the latest European 
RTD developments, including multilingual
data harvesting, data analytics, and data visualization.

As a representative of our target communities, we are very interested in 
hearing about your big data
challenges and needs. As a project stakeholder, you will have the 
opportunity to influence the platform's
design to your advantage, by reflecting the requirements of the entire 
community.

We look forward to your participation. Please register online at

and feel free to circulate this invitation within your networks!

In case you are not able to attend our launch event, we are keen to stay
