Quality, Trust, and Innovation: Minister Obertin returns to Data Summit Luxembourg in 2025

We are delighted to welcome back Stéphanie Obertin, Luxembourg’s Minister for Digitalisation and Minister for Research and Higher Education. She will return to deliver a speech at the Data Summit Luxembourg 2025 , taking place on 2 December 2025 at the European Convention Center Luxembourg.

Minister Obertin’s keynote at last year’s summit left a lasting impression on the audience. She outlined a bold and strategic vision for Luxembourg’s data future, emphasising the importance of trust, quality, and innovation in the way data is managed and reused across sectors.

“[in Luxembourg] we embrace a different approach: one that prioritizes quality over quantity, strategy over scale, and innovation over imitation”

– Stéphanie Obertin, Minister for Digitalisation and Minister for Research and Higher Education

Her 2024 speech highlighted the National Data Strategy as a pivotal opportunity to position Luxembourg as a leader in responsible and strategic data reuse. She stressed the need for a robust regulatory framework, secure infrastructures, and a culture of collaboration between public institutions, researchers, and innovators.

For a small country like Luxembourg, high-quality data is a strategic enabler. By focusing on quality and interoperability, Luxembourg is building a data ecosystem that supports evidence-based policymaking, scientific excellence, and digital innovation.
