Dawex, a provider of Data Exchange solutions, announced its technology will support the Decade-X France project, aimed at developing a secure and interoperable digital ecosystem for data collaboration within the aerospace and defense sectors in France.
The Decade-X France initiative, operating under the broader DECADE-X framework, seeks to facilitate data exchange among more than 10,000 entities, including manufacturers, OEMs, large organizations, and SMEs in the aeronautics, aerospace, and defense industries. The project’s goal is to enable seamless digital continuity, unlock data value across the ecosystem, and enhance AI strategies.
Dawex’s role involves deploying its Industry Data Space solution, which is designed to orchestrate trusted, secure, and compliant exchanges of data products.
