The SEMIC 2025 Conference took place on 25-26 November in Copenhagen, and was organised by the European Commission in partnership with the Danish Presidency of the Council of the European Union.

The 2025 conference focused on "Interoperability for Impact", aligning closely with the objectives of the Interoperable Europe Act. It showcased how interoperability directly supports EU digital goals, transforming visionary aspirations into tangible realities.

SEMIC 2025 addressed the critical role of interoperability in the public sector, examining concrete actions and policies that enhance connectivity across Europe’s digital public services.

Building on its strong tradition of hands-on sessions, SEMIC 2025 once again featured a full day of technical workshops on 25 November. These sessions were designed to provide an immersive, skill-oriented experience focused on real challenges and actionable solutions. 

This year’s programme covered a wide range of topics, including approaches to semantic modelling, with a comparative overview of current tools and methodologies. Participants also explored the evolving role of semantics in European data spaces, examining both the today's landscape and upcoming trends. Cross-border semantic interoperability remains a key focus - this time through real-world use cases from across Europe. In addition, the workshops addressed the intersection of semantics and legal frameworks.
