The Veneto Region is promoting open data projects to drive more modern and smarter government. Open data can be used to improve decision-making, offer new citizen services, strengthen private sector collaboration, and increase transparency. The region aims to boost economic and social growth by collecting and processing public data. It has launched an open data portal and community portal to make data available and engage stakeholders. Innovation labs will be created to exploit open data and engage groups in co-creating new services and products.
