Stratégie numérique: valoriser les données des administrations publiques. European Commission - Press release Digital Agenda: Turning government data into gold Brussels, 12 December 2011 – The Commission has launched an Open Data Strategy for Europe, which is expected to deliver a €40 billion boost to the EU's economy each year. Europe’s public administrations are sitting on a goldmine of unrealised economic potential: the large volumes of information collected by numerous public authorities and services.

Member States such as the United Kingdom and France are already demonstrating this value. The strategy to lift performance EU-wide is three-fold: firstly the Commission will lead by example, opening its vaults of information to the public for free through a new data portal. Secondly, a level playing field for open data across the EU will be established. Finally, these new measures are backed by the €100 million which will be granted in 2011-2013 to fund research into improved data-handling technologies. Background More information: See MEMO/11/891.

Neelie Kroes Vice President European Commission responsible for the Digital Agenda Opening up Europe: from Common Standards to Open Data OpenForum Europe Summit 2011, Brussels 22nd September 2011 Ladies and gentlemen, I am glad to be speaking here again; I'm on my way to becoming a regular at your Summits!

Last year, at the 2010 Summit, I shared with you my ideas on interoperability and standards, and listed some key actions to put in place. Well, we have achieved a lot, but we haven't achieved everything: so here I am! Of course I am eager to tell you today what we've done since last year and so I will start with that. Ladies and Gentlemen, In all sectors, standards and standardisation drive competitiveness, promote innovation, and benefit consumers through competition.

Remember that the ICT revolution would not be what it is without the standards and protocols which underpin the Internet. And we in Europe are now one huge step closer to better standards. That's what we've done. European Public Sector Information Platform | Europe's One-Stop Shop on Public Sector Information (PSI) Re-use.
