LivingLab was our spotlight at EMO Hannover, addressing the challenges of entering the data economy. LivingLab is an easy-to-use dataspace sandbox environment, designed to lower the entry barrier for dataspace operations and resulting business applications. It offers a preconfigured, ready-to-use dataspace environment with certified components, allowing users to deploy and test various applications and resulting services.
