On 13 May 2025, our colleague María del Mar Roldán attended the Market-X & Tech-X 2025 event in Valencia, organised by Gaia-X. During her presentation at the Agriculture Ecosystem Panel session, she presented the ÁGORA Datalab (https://agora-datalab.eu/) in the context of the EDAAn project: Towards the creation of the Federated Data Space of the Andalusian Agri-Food Sector. https://gaia-x.eu/market-x-tech-x-2025/

On 17 March, a working day focused on interoperability in the data spaces of the agri-food sector was held in Madrid, organised by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA) together with the Directorate General for Data of the Ministry for Digital Transformation and the Civil Service, and in collaboration with the State Secretariat for Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence (SEDIA).The meeting brought together representatives of various projects and initiatives with the aim of promoting synergies, exploring shared use cases and establishing common lines of action to improve interoperability between data spaces. During the session, the importance of connecting these digital ecosystems to promote the digitisation of the agri-food sector, optimise resource management and move towards greater sustainability was highlighted.Among the participating projects were AgrospAI (University of Lleida), RuralTech (Seresco…

The University of Málaga (UMA) and the INNOVA IRV Innovation Institute have taken an important step towards the creation of a Co-Innovation Laboratory in Artificial Intelligence, following a strategic meeting held at the Accenture facilities in Málaga TechPark. The aim is to establish a collaborative space between science, technology and business to address, from an interdisciplinary perspective, the current challenges of artificial intelligence. During the conference, possible lines of collaboration between UMA research groups and the business sector were explored, as well as opportunities for participation in projects with industrial impact. José F. Aldana, deputy director of ITIS UMA and director of ÁGORA Datalab (https://agora-datalab.eu/), participated on behalf of both entities, highlighting the value of knowledge transfer and open innovation. This laboratory aspires to become a benchmark in the responsible…
