MyData thought leadership is further developed by a number of thematic groups through collective sensemaking of the different relevant technologies, concepts and principles and what those mean in particular cultural, political and societal contexts.
We want to foster collaboration through the various MyData activities, and with that, give you the opportunity to indicate any wishes for future collaborations.
