As a founding member of the sphin-X e.V. association, which was founded on 12 November 2024, adesso is reaffirming its commitment to data spaces aimed at enhancing Germany’s position as a hub for research and development. sphin-X e.V. formalises sphin-X, an initiative of the Federation of German Industries (BDI e.V.), and will serve as a steering committee to coordinate the efforts of the current 24 members of the association in future. At the founding meeting, member companies, associations, and organisations from the healthcare industry elected the inaugural board of sphin-X e.V., which includes Christian Wollny, Head of the Competence Center for Data Spaces at adesso.
The vision: one data space for the healthcare sector
sphin-X originally emerged from the BDI initiative “Gesundheit digital”. Under the motto “One Data Space for Health”, more than 50 organisations from the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries have united with the shared goal of establishing a data space to enable cross-thematic collaboration. The aim of the initiative and the association now founded is in particular to promote the use of data for the common good across all sectors. This will be achieved while ensuring compliance with regulatory data protection requirements and preserving the full data sovereignty of all parties involved. As a provider of data space technology, adesso is already successfully implementing various data spaces across multiple projects. adesso brings this experience and expertise to sphin-X e.V. in a profitable way.
