Launch event of BigDataEurope, 27 Feb., Brussels

Sent on behalf of my colleague Marie-Claire Forgue.

Dear all,

We would like to cordially invite you to the public launch [1] of the 
BigDataEurope project [2] (Coordination and Support Action under the 
European Union’s Horizon 2020 programme), to be held Rue Montoyer 47, 
Brussels, on the 27th February 2015, 10:00-15:00.

BigDataEurope aims at developing a Big Data Platform based on 
requirements identified with stakeholders from the 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

free to circulate this invitation within your network!

In case you are not able to attend our launch event, we are keen to stay 
in touch. Please subscribe to our mailing list here for the latest
