Big-Data-Network Information

Europe is home to over 55 Center of Excellences that perform cutting edge research and drive the development and evolution of all aspects of Big Data. Each of these Center of Excellence approaches Big Data from a different scientific background and with a different focus. Each of these centers alone can only cover a small part of the whole Big Data picture, but together their competences can define the data-driven Future of Europe. In addition, many of them also act as innovation engines to the local economy. However, European companies are not sufficiently aware of this asset. Main focus of the Center of Excellence Network will be research topics and how they can be transferred into relevant industries. In the future, exchange of academic expertise across the Network will support further research, enable the role-out of promising projects across Europe, and strengthen the European economy. The vision of the network is too landscape & connect Europe’s Big Data Competence to provide industry the use-cases and success stories they need to implement and test innovative and data-driven solutions. With those actions we will foster the transfer of research into industry. The individual centers provide unique research and industry domain knowledge to the others partners.
