The reason to join us

Cities and communities often face a common challenge

At this conference, the OASC community shares, discusses and tries to understand how today’s complex challenges in digital transformation can be tackled by re-visiting the original core OASC values: being open and acting agile to stay on track in developing and deploying interoperable solutions around the world.   

These are the key issues for  the OASC Conference 2027. 

What to expect

Over two days, you will explore how openness and agility can help keep digital transformation on track. Not in theory, but in practice.

Together with cities, communities and other ‘smart city’ stakeholders, you will look at what it really takes to respond to fast-moving technological, economic and societal change.

Participants will: 

• Learn from practice
  Gain insights from Denmark’s public sector on how openness and agility are applied across different levels of government
• Exchange knowledge with peers
  Share experiences and learn from cities and communities across Europe and beyond
• Be inspired
  Discover real-world approaches through local site visits and contributions from practitioners
• Connect and experience Aarhus
  Enjoy networking moments in one of the world’s happiest cities
• Meet sponsors
  Connect with others active in the field and get to know their work

Throughout the conference, you will hear how others are working through collaboration, shared standards, practical solutions and trusted partnerships. We hope you will leave with ideas you can take forward in your own context.
