First SDEPS event: an introduction

Leonieke Verhoog -

On Friday 9th July 2021 at 14:00 CET / 13:00h BST, the SDEPS (Shared Digital European Public Sphere) coalition had its first public event.

You maybe wonder what is SDEPS and more importantly why should I be involved? Over the hour-long event, we will explain the background, what’s been done so far and our plans going forward… together. It will be great use of your time on a Friday afternoon!

Here is a brief overview of what to expect:

  • Introduction to SDEPS: what we are and what we are not
  • Guest speaker: Bill Thompson (BBC R&D) on the past, present and future of the digital public sphere
  • Q&A with Bill
  • Update from the SDEPS working groups (Infrastructure and Advocacy) including how to get involved
  • Q&A
  • Wrap-up

You can register your interest by emailing participate@sdeps.eu and we will send you the participation details ahead of the meeting on Friday. If you are interested in joining our collective effort, please read the Joined Vision of SDEPS.
