On June 12, 2025, the Simpl-Live Feasibility Study Consolidated Report and Dissemination Material was published.

Conducted throughout 2024, the study explored how Simpl-Open can be integrated into six data spaces and initiatives: the Public Procurement Data Space (PPDS), the European Health Data Space for Secondary Use of Data (EHDS2), the Language Data Space (LDS), the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), Destination Earth (DestinE), and the Smart Communities Data Space (SCDS).

Simpl-Live focuses on defining how selected European data initiatives will implement Simpl-Open. This involved conducting a fit-gap analysis and identifying integration scenarios that will guide the implementation phase. In parallel, requirements gathered during this study are also provided to Simpl-Open development team.
