We are very pleased to announce the official start of the new research project ScaleTrust (Scalable Compliance and Leadership in Ethical Trusteeship), funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with funds from the EU, which took place with the handover of the notification by State Secretary Judith Pirscher!

The official kick-off meeting took place on July 2, 2024, where we set together the course for the coming months and laid a solid foundation for our collaboration.

In the coming months, we will work intensively together to create a blueprint for cross-sector data exchange in data spaces to sustainably establish and scale intersectoral data trustees. Our already active Green Deal Dataspace e. V., designed as an open ecosystem for resilience and sustainability, serves as a prototype here.

A fiduciary model is being developed that is being tested in two use cases – calculating the carbon footprint in production networks and risk management in supply chains. This model is transferable to other areas of application.

Under the consortium leadership of Advaneo GmbH, the consortium partners InfAI – Institut für Angewandte Informatik e. V., Saarland University and Green Deal Dataspace e. V. will participate. Further support will be provided by the International Data Spaces Association (IDSA), Funk Group, ZENIT GmbH, Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V., 1001 Lakes Oy and Rhine-Waal University.
