Abstract
The European Union (EU) legislator has adopted the Data Governance Act and the Data Act in order to unleash the power of data for the economy and society. With setting-up of several European data spaces the EU takes a distinct and unique approach to data sharing in Europe. What is the philosphy behind EU data governance? How will data spaces transform the data economy?  As the current mandate of the European Commission comes to a close, it is a good moment to take stock on the EU’s policy and legislation with respect to data – a key resource in the digital economy.
