Before the teams get building, they need to get equipped. The Challenge Presentation Webinar Series is a dedicated remote learning phase designed to give all participating teams deep technical insight into the tools, standards, and ecosystems at the heart of the hackathon.
Spanning 3 hours of structured online sessions, this series will bring together 6+ domain experts from leading organisations shaping the future of data interoperability and digital public infrastructure
- 18h00 JST / 10h00 CET – Greetings from Prof Noburu Koshizuka, University of Tokyo
- 18h10 JST / 10h10 CET - “How to Connect to the UTokyo Testbed VPN and Its Architecture”, University of Tokyo, Prof. Hirotsugu Seike
- 18h40 JST / 10h40 CET – “Inji Wallet : seamless and secure management of verifiable credentials”, MOSIP, Sivanand Lanka
- 19h10 JST / 11h10 CET - “NGSI-LD and DCAT-AP as dataspace foundation”, EGM, Benoit Orihuela

- 20h10 JST / 12h10 CET – "FIWARE Dataspace Components: enabling more powerful data spaces supporting monetization and access to applications, services and data from devices, robots, AI agents and end users", Seamware, Juanjo Hierro
- 20h40 JST / 12h40 CET – “Innovative Thinking : methods and tools to boost your project”, Yuliya Kharchenko
Each 30-minute session will walk participants through real-world systems, testbed access points, data trading workflows, and foundational standards - giving teams the knowledge they need to develop seamless, regulatory-compliant prototypes.
The 2026 Hackathon on Interoperability of Data Spaces and Digital Public Infrastructure invites innovators to Tokyo to advance the EU-Japan Digital Partnership and the G7 Data Free Flow with Trust (DFFT) framework. This event challenges cross-regional teams from the EU, Japan, and the Indo-Pacific to develop seamless, regulatory-compliant prototypes that bridge the European Digital Identity (EUDI) framework with Japan’s digital identity ecosystem and other foundational systems like MOSIP. Participants will gain exclusive access to managed dataspace testbed pre-configured, allowing them to focus on solving complex cross-border identity and data sovereignty challenges.
