On 24 September, the European Commission is hosting a full day event to celebrate the go live of the Public Procurement Data Space (PPDS)! All user groups are welcome to attend the PPDS Day 2024. The event will include live demonstrations of the PPDS, discuss what's in it for users and the motivations for countries to join the PPDS and share their data. In parallel sessions, participants will learn how to use the PPDS, but also about how procurement data is assessed in terms of their data quality along with insights into the technical aspects of the PPDS. A networking cocktail will conclude the day. Please note that this is not a hybrid event. See you there!
