Every city should be able to build on what another city has already proven, and open standards and replicable building blocks are how we make that happen across Europe.

You can contact me for:

• EDIC Sandbox Alliance facilities: testing and experimentation environments for Local Digital Twin and Citiverse solutions
• Replicable Recipe Catalogue: reusable building blocks and recipes that cities and regions can adopt and scale
• Technical coordination of the BUILD project
• Interoperability and standardisation: OASC MIMs (including MIM9 Citiverse), open data and 3D standards for Local Digital Twins

I see the EDIC as a unique opportunity to show that European cooperation works, when sound governance and legal certainty give cities and Member States the confidence to share infrastructure, data and ambitions.
