EBDVF brings together industry every year professionals, business developers, researchers and policy-makers from all over Europe and other regions of the world to advance policy actions and industrial and research activities in the areas of Data and AI. Organised by BDVA in collaboration with DTU – Technical University of Denmark and SDU – University of Southern Denmark, this flagship event is the premier event of Europe’s data and AI industry-driven research and innovation community. The theme of EBDVF 2025, Empowering Europe’s Future with AI and Data, highlights Europe’s ambition to harness data and artificial intelligence. Data and AI are a key driver of economic growth, competitiveness and innovation, delivering tangible benefits such as better healthcare, cleaner and safer transport, new products and services and progress in sustainability and energy efficiency, which can reinforce Europe’s position in the global data economy.
The EBDVF programme covered burning topics within the European Data and AI ecosystem in over 40 sessions, touching on the present and future of Industrial AI in Europe. We found out how AI Factories and Gigafactories will revolutionise our continent, learning more about their value offer. Many different sessions were linked to the AI Continent Action plan and the European Data Union Strategy. EBDVF covered topics such as Generative AI and agents, interoperability and AI value creation, with sessions examining how these technologies can transform both European industry and the public sector. The forum highlighted how data spaces are becoming central to the European data and AI ecosystem.
