Deep-Tech Innovation for Data Science Infrastructures
We are ORDES — a deep-tech prototyping lab at the Swiss Data Science Center (SDSC).
Our mission: turn research ideas into scalable, interoperable digital infrastructures.
Founded in 2022, we design and deliver data science infrastructures that connect data, code, and governance into production-ready assets. Our team blends expertise in semantic interoperability, research software engineering, and data science architecture to build modular, reusable solutions across scientific domains.
We work with communities, not just for them — integrating feedback loops between data producers, infrastructure builders, and users to ensure lasting impact and alignment with evolving research needs.
We bridge research and infrastructure — making open, FAIR, and trusted data systems a practical reality for science and innovation. Join us in shaping the future of data science.
Curious? Excited? We invite you to explore our repositories, join the conversation, and contribute to the open movement. 🚀
