-# Smart Middleware Platform (Simpl) for Cloud-to-Edge Federations and Data Spaces
+# About Simpl
 
-## Overview
-The Smart Middleware Platform (Simpl) is designed to federate data, software, and infrastructure across the European Union, fostering collaboration between public and private sectors, including research institutions across various industries.
+## Welcome
 
-## Main Goals
-* <b>Federation of Resources:</b> Federate data, software, and infrastructure to promote collaboration.
-* <b>Support for Data Spaces:</b> Enable smart and secure data access and interoperability among European data spaces.
-* <b>Creation of Common European Data Spaces:</b> Facilitate secure data sharing within sectoral ecosystems.
+This is a group where we develop a [Simpl project](https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/simpl).
 
-## Key Features
-* <b>Interoperability:</b> Seamlessly interconnect and make data sets and infrastructure interoperable.
