Apidays Virtual Helsinki - Monica Posada Sanchez, Mark Boyd, Lorenzino Vaccari, European Commission
summary
Two-year European Commission study maps how APIs drive government digital transformation, delivering a three-layer framework (strategy, tactics, operations) and four pillars (policy, platforms/ecosystems, people, processes), plus four reports and a coordinated roadmap. Concrete findings: Lombardy cross-fertilizes tourism and mobility data; Airbnb reporting links directly to tax offices; Italy defines 17 external ecosystems; APIs improve emergency response times. A public self-assessment tool for API maturity and a guidelines set for discoverability, security, lifecycle and legal/organizational governance are coming soon.
