The announcement of the PSI Alliance’s annual conference comes as the European Commission prepares to publish its latest communication on the Re-Use of PSI Directive, which sets minimum rules for the re-use of PSI throughout the European Union.

Rolf Nordqvist, Chair of the PSI Alliance said:
“We are delighted to publish our annual conference programme and to announce the top flight speakers who will be presenting at the conference. The event provides a real opportunity for private sector attendees to discover what the future holds in store for the Public Sector Information agenda and to adjust their business models accordingly.

“The European Commission communication on the Re-Use of PSI Directive expected in the coming months will ensure that PSI remains high on the EU legislative agenda, and we are looking forward to debating this and other important issues at our conference in June.”
