The newsletter reflects the current momentum around TEMS and the broader European data spaces ecosystem, with a clear focus on moving from foundations to practical implementation. Reporting from the 2026 Data Spaces Symposium in Madrid, it highlights a shared message across sectors: the technical building blocks are in place, and the priority now is adoption, usability, and viable business models. In the media domain, discussions centred on what AI readiness truly requires—shared standards, machine-readable rights, trusted governance, and interoperable frameworks that allow organisations to innovate while maintaining control over their content and intellectual property.
A particular focus is placed on the reuse of 3D heritage models in media production, illustrating how collaboration between broadcasters, cultural heritage institutions, and 3D digitisation companies can open new avenues for content creation and value generation. Through workshops and ongoing exchanges, TEMS is contributing to the development of a structured market and co-creation space for virtual production—laying practical groundwork for an ecosystem in which Europe’s cultural, media, and linguistic assets can be securely reused and developed further.
