The Data Spaces Business Alliance: Accelerating Business transformation in the Data Economy
The Data Spaces Business Alliance (DSBA) accelerates business transformation in the data economy. It’s the first initiative of its kind, uniting industry players to realize a data-driven future in which organizations and individuals can unlock the full value of their data.

Data spaces are key to achieving sovereign, interoperable and trustworthy data-sharing across businesses and societies – a key step to the data economy of the future. The Alliance embraces this reality, converging the best skills, assets, and experience in Europe into a one-stop-shop for data spaces, from inception to deployment.

The Data Spaces Business Alliance are Gaia-X European Association for Data and Cloud AISBL, the Big Data Value Association (BDVA), FIWARE Foundation, and the International Data Spaces Association (IDSA). Together they represent 1,000+ leading key industry players, associations, research organizations, innovators, and policymakers worldwide. With this cross-industry expertise, resources and know-how, the Alliance drives awareness, evangelizes technology, shapes standards, and enables integration across industries.

The Data Spaces Support Centre: We are here to help you

We as the Data Spaces Support Centre want to contribute to the creation of common data spaces, that collectively create a data sovereign, interoperable and trustworthy data sharing environment, to enable data reuse within and across sectors, fully respecting EU values, and supporting the European economy and society. Funded by the European Commission as part of the Digital Europe Program, the Data Spaces Support Centre is aimed at the public sector and companies that want to create sovereign data spaces.

Therefore the Data Spaces Support Centre will explore the needs of data space initiatives, define common requirements and establish best practices to accelerate the formation of sovereign data spaces as a crucial element of digital transformation in all areas. With the combined expertise of our 12 consortium partners in the project, the Data Spaces Support Centre will provide the best possible support to data space initiatives on the requirements related to interoperable data spaces.
