I have long thought that data governance has a brand problem. Inside many organizations it still sounds like control, cost, and constraint, not value. Even when the underlying work is critical, the label “data governance” often lands with executives as bureaucracy: steering committees, policies, and standards that slow things down.

Excellent piece on the #INSPIRE revision in the broader Environmental #omnibus Esp the sections 'first impact' and 'my view' by Thorsten Reitz of WeTransform. Right at the time when interoperability is crucial, for #dataspace , for digital sovereignty, and the Data Union strategy, key pieces of interoperability are thrown away, overcompensating for the all too rigid harmonisation rules we have now. #interop #datastrategy #gdds https://wetransform.to/news-and-events/european-spatial-data-infrastructures/

The migration is complete. The "Actual Goals" manifesto is live on a sovereign platform. No tracking, no bloat, no ego-feeding. Just a direct line to strategic diagnostic intelligence.
