Unlocking the potential of data analytics in collaborative research

4th June 2026, 11:30-13:30, online

Innovation is increasingly driven by the capacity to gather and manage data. They help to take decisions related to a complexity of actors, value chains, and economic, legal, sustainable and social requirements, while allowing to develop and adapt faster during research and innovation processes.

Data management techniques, including big data handling and AI algorithms, are increasingly seen as a competitive factor and a premium criterion in cooperative research projects. Since several years, a Data Management strategy is mandatory in all EU projects, going hand in hand with the Safe and Sustainable by Design framework.

Despite these efforts, several barriers still hinder its efficient use and exploitation, including aspects such as:

  • Capacity to build relevant and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) raw data sets;
  • Interest and resources of parties to share research data (e.g. including failure data) and build unbiased data sets;
  • Scoping of data analysis (e.g. experimental data, correlations, predictive models, etc.) and selection of appropriate methods and tools;
  • Sharing and using data and analytical results within and outside the consortium.

Based on the experience of running European projects on material research, this workshop aims to promote awareness and to share views and experiences on data analysis from both researchers, and data management experts and practitioners.

Who should attend?

Research and Industry experts, partners of European and national research projects, data providers and end users. This is an opportunity for exchange knowledge and experiences, identifying gaps, good practices, and learnings on the topic.

What is BIOSAFIRE all about?

BIOSAFIRE will develop and upscale innovative products upgrading nature’s best fire retardants (FRs): lignins and tannins. To ensure that these novel products are safe and sustainable, while retaining their desired technological functionality, they will be thoroughly assessed by applying the SSbD framework at different stages of their development and the results will be iteratively fed into the further design and optimisation of the technologies. Involving the full material value chain, these flame retardants will be upscaled to TRL7 and demonstrated in five different applications.

Excited for the journey ahead and the positive impact we’ll create together!
