Brief description

 

The Policy Cloud project harnesses the potential of digitisation, big data and cloud technologies to improve the modelling, creation and implementation of policy. In three years (2020-2022) the project addressed challenges faced by many businesses and public administrations in improving how they make policy decisions by accessing and using data.

 

Funded under the European Commission’s H2020 programme, the project delivers a unique, integrated environment of curated datasets and data management, manipulation, and analysis tools addressing the full lifecycle of policy management in four distinct thematic areas, and using the data analysis capabilities of the European Cloud Initiative.
 

Our Role 

Trust-IT coordinates the work on Communication, Exploitation, Standardisation, Roadmapping & Business Development, particularly leading the creation of the project’s visual identity and promotional materials such as printed collaterals and videos, as well as the management of Policy Cloud’s website and project Twitter and LinkedIn channels. Trust-IT also contributes to the project's work on Cross-sector Policy Lifecycle Management and Requirements, Architecture & Innovation.
