On this podcast, we hand over the microphone to the builders and the doers of the Data Space ecosystem. 

We were at the Data Space Symposium in March, diving into the heart of the ecosystem where Data Spaces take shape. During this event, Alex took the microphone to capture insights on the fly from key players of the field.

Jacopo Cassina has been involved for several years in the development of Data spaces in Europe. He is the initiator of Machinery-X, a Data Space dedicated to exchange of information between industrial machine producers and users. Jacopo is the CEO of Holonix, a company that helps businesses improve their products using The Internet of things, and a researcher in the department of management, economics and industrial engineering. 

In this interview, Jacopo discusses the project’s origin, its use cases and challenges.
