The Nordic Institute for Interoperability Solutions (NIIS) is an association founded jointly by Finland and Estonia. Its mission is to develop open e-governance solutions, kicking off with the X-Road technology used nationwide in the Estonian public administration and in the Suomi.fi Data Exchange Layer service. This is probably the first time in the world when a joint special purpose organization of two countries develops an open source software using agile software development methods. The aim of the conference talk is to tell about the X-Road related collaboration between Finland and Estonia, activating the developer community and future possibilities of the collaboration model.
