All of us who work with data will sooner or later hear various acronyms for connectors or other software components in the Gaia-X haze: EDC, IDS, DSC, MVG. Besides these tools, there are many others. You may be asking yourself the following questions: Do you want to work in Data Spaces, but have lost track? Which tool should I use, in which contexts does which one bring more advantages? Do I stick with open source or use a private tool?

We want to discuss all these questions with you and with renowned representatives of the shaping organizations!
