Pieter Colpaert, we go back to since the early open data days, reports on his takeaways of the SEMIC conference last November in Copenhagen, under the Danish EU presidency.

I enjoyed the conference too. For meeting friends like Pieter. But also to see how geopolitical shifts and the urgent need for digital sovereignty landed. It seemed many for the first time realised that interoperability is a key element in digital autonomy and sovereignty.

SEMIC is a conference bringing together the European Semantic Interoperability Community.
