The CEI-Sphere project supports the development of an open, interoperable, and competitive Cloud-Edge-IoT (CEI) ecosystem. At its core are Europe’s Large-Scale Pilots (LSPs). To maximise their impact, CEI-Sphere introduces the concept of Spheres: the three below clusters that bring together use cases from the LSPs around shared challenges and opportunities.

Over the next 30 months, CEI-Sphere will foster innovation and collaboration, driving outcomes in standardisation, interoperability, and key partnerships for the Cloud-Edge-IoT ecosystem.
