AMdEX accelerates the transition to a fair data economy by giving data owners and data users control over their data. This way, AMdEX enables data based innovations. Such as new treatment methods by sharing medical data or developing sustainable solutions for urban transport.

To achieve this, we co-design and co-develop a neutral and independent infrastructure for trusted data sharing. Neutral because all data is treated equally, there is no discrimination based on user, content or application. Independent because the infrastructure is not in the hands of one party. This enables us to reliably share data.

AMdEX is a collaboration between AMS-IX, UvA, SURF, deXes and Amsterdam Economic Board and co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund. Together they will develop the technology and organization to make this possible over the next 2.5 years . The goal is to establish a not-for-profit organization that ensures continued development in the long term.
