INVEST invites you to an online workshop exploring the interoperability of digital public services across the European Union. This interactive session will bring together diverse perspectives from public administration, the private sector, and academia, fostering dialogue around the challenges and opportunities of digital interoperability in Europe.

The debate will feature the participation of Luis Valente, interoperability specialist at AMA, Teresa Mesquita, member of the Board of Directors of SIBS - Forward Payment Solutions, and Delfina Soares, Director of the United Nations University Operating Unit on Policy-Driven Electronic Governance.

The workshop is facilitated by the Administrative Modernization Agency (AMA/Portugal), an INVEST partner, and aims to support the exchange of best practices and ideas among key stakeholders.

This event is part of the INVEST project, co-financed by the Digital Europe Programme, running from January to December 2025. The project brings together partners from across the EU to strengthen public administrations' ability to design and manage interoperable, cross-border digital services, aligned with the Interoperable Europe Regulation (EU).
