Fourth Eclipse Tractus-X Community Days
The Eclipse Tractus-X Community Days serve as a platform for collaboration, innovation and knowledge sharing within the Tractus-X ecosystem. Building on the success of previous events, these days bring together industry leaders, developers and open source enthusiasts to shape the future of digital transformation.

The Fourth Eclipse Tractus-X Community Days took place with great success on May 22 and 23, 2025 at ARENA2036. Around 200 developers and managers from the data space came together on both days to network, exchange knowledge and work together on the future of sovereign data spaces . Participants from various countries, including Spain, Portugal and India, networked again, worked together in the workshops and contributed to advancing the community.
Representatives of Manufacturing-X projects such as Factory-X, Aerospace-X, Semiconductor-X, Chem-X, Construct-X, Transfer-X, HealthTrack-X and Sphine-X were also present as an enriching part of the event and added to the program with their perspectives and impulses.
THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THE EVENT
A special highlight of internationalization this time is the announcement of our cooperation with Spain: A testbed is being set up in Tractus-X together with Spain for the mutual exchange of data between test data rooms.
The Fourth Eclipse Tractus-X Community Days provided a unique platform to learn about the latest developments in open source projects, digital ecosystems and collaborative data exchange. Whether you were a developer, solution provider or product manager, the event had something to offer for everyone who wanted to explore technologies and innovations in this field. Here are some of the aspects that made the event stand out:
- Practical workshops: In practical programming sessions, participants have the opportunity to work with the Eclipse Tractus X tools together with experts in the field.
- Networking opportunities: Participants will meet colleagues and industry leaders from the Catena-X ecosystem to make valuable contacts.
- Opening keynote and developer panel: You will receive input from thought leaders who have pioneered open source collaborations in the automotive and manufacturing industries.
- Presentations: You can learn more about use cases, apps, KITs, publications and much more - even without programming knowledge.
We were particularly pleased to welcome Prof. Dr. Boris Otto this year! With his expertise in data management and digital platforms, he provided the community with valuable input.
