BIG mission
The mission of BIG is setting up an ecosystem (the Big Data Public Private Forum) that will bring together all the relevant stakeholders needed to materialize a data-driven society in 2020. This ecosystem will ensure that Europe plays a leading role in the definition of the new context by building the necessary infrastructures and technologies, generating a suitable innovation space where all organizations benefit from data and providing a pan-European framework to coherently address policy, regulatory, legal and security barriers.
