The benefits of Open Data are diverse and range from improved performance of public administrations, econonic growth in the private sector to wider social wellfare

The Benefits of Open Data 

The market size for Open Data is estimated at 75,7 Bn Euro for the EU28+ by 2020

The European Data Portal ‐ What do we do?

1. We offer metadata in 12 languages (for now), we visualise, we offer quality checks for over 585K datasets 

2. We train a suite of learning experiences in the field of Open Data from publishing to the re‐using Open Data

3. We showcase Open Data events, Open Data news, Open Data best practices, Open Data reports, etc

4. We collect by inviting stakeholders to share their stories, their feedback, their portals

5. We convene: meetings, webinars, events to discuss open data best practices, challenges and next steps

6. We share our source code and promote open source and re‐use of components and standards 

“We harvest open data made available by all public administrations across Europe.

Our focus is data from the Member States”

34 countries, 70 catalogues harvested, visualisations, maps, …
