Agenda and pre-assignments:

It provides the agenda and preparation package for the DS4SSCC Ljubljana Bootcamp. It outlines the two-day in-person training structure, covering business and governance sessions, technical sessions, and joint work on federation and sustainability. A key focus of the document is the pre-assignments for pilots, including stakeholder mapping, governance and participation management overviews, use case descriptions, data product definitions, and technical preparation tasks, so that the bootcamp sessions could build directly on the pilots’ prior work. 

Business & Governance Track

The Business & Governance Track focuses on helping pilots refine their use cases, data products, business models and governance approaches. Building on their stakeholder maps, governance and participation management overviews, use cases and data products, participants clarify value propositions, customer and user groups, revenue or cost-recovery logic, roles and responsibilities, trust and decision-making structures, and sustainability beyond EU funding. The track also explores the transition from local data spaces towards federated business and governance models, including joint offerings, cost and benefit sharing, and governance mechanisms that support trust and coordination.

Joint Sessions:
The joint sessions bring all participants together to align on key concepts, share progress and connect the technical, business and governance perspectives. They include workshop framing, pilot presentations, federation concepts, group formation, peer exchange and closing reflections. These sessions help pilots learn from each other, identify common challenges and explore opportunities for collaboration across use cases, domains and geographies.

Technical Track

The technical track focuses on the implementation aspects of smart community data spaces, building on the DS4SSCC Blueprint and its technical pillars. Participants work on topics such as ODRL implementation, technical governance, Verifiable Credentials, federation theory, semantics, data models and SIMPL. The sessions are designed to help pilots understand key technical choices, prepare for interoperability and explore practical steps towards local and federated data space deployment.
