Boost European BIG DATA research, development and
innovation by:
strengthening competitiveness and ensuring industrial
leadership
promoting the widest and best uptake of BIG DATA
technologies and services
establishing the excellence of the science base in the
field of BIG DATA
Goals of BDVA
13. 20/10/16 13www.bdva.eu
Work together to organize an IMPACTFUL program
Efficiency: Further develop the EU big data ecosystem (i-
Spaces)

The main BDV cPPP Elements are:
Innovation Spaces: Cross-sector
interdisciplinary Data Innovation hubs
Lighthouse projects:
Demonstrate Big Data Value
R & I Projects: addressing technical
priorities defined BDV SRIA
Ecosystem Enablers: Non-technical
including business models, standards,
etc.

Impact #1: Industrial Adoption of
Big Data
Barrier: Europe is behind other regions
in the adoption of Big Data
BDV PPP Action: Drive the adoption of
big data to transform industrial sectors

Lighthouse Projects (ICT-15)
• Demonstrate Big Data Value
in a target industrial sector
• Large-scale data-driven
demonstraHons
• Propose replicable solu@ons
by using exisHng technologies
or very near to market
technologies
• Create high level impact and
broadcast visibility
24. 20/10/16 24www.bdva.eu
Demonstrate Relative Advantage: Demonstrate increase of
productivity/competitiveness of the target sector
Provide proof points: Availability of evidence and practice
efficacy for the target sector to justify investment
Risk: Understanding of the level of risk associated with the
implementation and adoption
Develop Ecosystem: Connect key stakeholders within the
sector across the value chain with active participation
(including SMEs).
Sustainability: Enable large scale replication for sectorial
transformation
Lighthouses: Driving Adoption
25. 20/10/16 25www.bdva.eu
Impact # 2: Promote Secure Data Sharing for
Innovation
Barrier: Availability of data is paramount, but
data sharing is an uncommon
BDV PPP Action: Facilitate Cross-domain
Data sharing & Foster Data Experimentation
26. 20/10/16 26www.bdva.eu
European Innovation Spaces (ICT-14)
(i-Spaces for short)
Hubs to bring together…
Data Owners

Data Innovators
...in a secure, trusted,
and controlled
environment
From “proof of concept” to
“proof of ROI”
27. 20/10/16 27www.bdva.eu
I-Spaces will deliver:
Support Cross-Domain Data Integration

The Big Data Value Strategic Research and
Innovation Agenda (BDV SRIA) defines the
overall goals, main technical and non-technical
priorities, and a research and innovation
roadmap for the European contractual Public
Private Partnership (cPPP) on Big Data Value.
SRIA Update – Community Survey - 2016
Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda
What is the SRIA?
• Built upon inputs and analysis from SMEs and Large
Enterprises, public organisaHons, and research and
academic insHtuHons.
• Mul@ple workshops and consulta@ons took place to ensure
the widest representaHon of views and posiHons
• Approximately 200 organisa@ons and other relevant
stakeholders physically par@cipa@ng and contribuHng.
SRIA is based on strong community involvement
