Webinar series on the Future of Open Data Portals

Webinar series: Future of Open Data Portals

The European Data Portal (EDP) team is launching a webinar series to discuss: The Future of Open Data Portals. This series will contain current best practices, experience and opportunities for collective action to ensure open data portals remain relevant and useful for the community they serve.

Traditionally, portals have looked at impact through the lens of the number of datasets published or downloaded by users. The EDP team believes that we need a shift in portal design and value proposition from a tool for publishing, with search as an enabling feature, to a community of like-minded parties, working with data. This requires new concepts and ideas on how portals should be built, and which features they should prioritise.

The Future of Open Data Portal series of eight biweekly 45-minute webinars beginning at 17:00 CET, starting on 6 October 2020, features speakers from the EDP team and the broader community. It will address technical, human factors, funding and sustainability topics.
