Program

The European strategy on the data economy is based on several texts of important European regulations, in particular the Data Governance Act (DGA) and the Data Act (DA), the proposal of which was published in February 2022.
Access to data, the volume of which is growing very rapidly, in particular via the IoT, imposes rights and duties for the various actors in the Data Value Chain (DVC).
During this seminar, a summary of the DGA and DA regulations will be presented in order to understand the essential points.
The agricultural sector has been implementing means for several years to facilitate the exchange of data between the many types of actors in this sector.
The case of the agricultural ecosystem will therefore be discussed in the light of these lessons and the perspectives linked in particular to European regulations.
