Owkin joins the Gaia-X European Association to contribute to a sustainable European data ecosystem

Owkin has joined the Gaia-X European Association for Data and Cloud AISBL, a European project bringing together representatives from business, politics, policy, technology and research from across Europe and beyond to build a federated and secure data infrastructure.

The Gaia-X community, which has 350 members, collaborates to develop a data infrastructure that adheres to a common standard – the Gaia-X standard. The project aims to facilitate openness, transparency, and sovereignty in data sharing.

Gaia-X draws on the broadest range of expertise to co-create the future of European digital infrastructure across dedicated data spaces supporting the most critical industries.

This collaboration will foster the development of the Gaia-X's federated data infrastructure and strengthen ties between Owkin and experts in the life sciences and healthcare communities, helping to further innovate in medicine to improve the health sector and associated services.
