What we do

• Publish reusable Linked Data artefacts: interaction patterns, schemas, and implementation guides.
• Run events in Ghent to align government, industry, and academia around interoperable implementations.
• Document governance practices so implementations of these artefacts stay accessible via transparent, objective criteria.

Use cases

• Patient Centric Solid (PACSOI)

  Patient-controlled Solid data spaces enabling verifiable, privacy-preserving sharing of clinical, lifestyle, and sensor data for coordinated care, research, and regulatory compliance (PACSOI proof‑of‑concept).

  On-going Partners: FAQIR Foundation, FAQIR Institute, MoveUP, Byteflies, AContrario, Ghent University – IDLab 🌍 Artefacts
