[Javier Valiño <javier.valino@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear community, 

I would like to make sure you are aware of what we are preparing at Open Community Experience (OCX), the Eclipse Foundation annual event, regarding Dataspaces.

From 21-23 April in Brussels, OC for AI at OCX will bring together industry leaders working on trustworthy AI frameworks, data sharing and dataspaces, and responsible governance strategies. 

OCX is especially relevant for developers, researchers, and policymakers exploring responsible, transparent, and collaborative approaches to AI innovation in open source.
