The final Use Case Observatory: open data with real-world impact

12. December 2025
Online
Organised by: data europa academy

Are you curious about the real-world impact of open data reuse across Europe? In this webinar we will explore the key findings from the third and final volume of the Use Case Observatory. This edition concludes a three-year research effort assessing the economic, social, environmental, and governmental benefits of open data. During the session, we will revisit 13 active use cases and dive deeper into two inspiring examples:
Integreat, presented by Svenja Osmers, an open-source platform helping refugees and newcomers access essential services in their own language, now active in over 100 German municipalities.
Tangible Data, introduced by Antonio Moneo, an initiative that transforms open data into 3D-printed and laser-cut sculptures to make sustainability challenges tangible and accessible.
