Building the EOSC Federation: Progress, Practice and Lessons from across Europe

INSPIRING ERA, in collaboration with the EOSC Association, organises an online event on "How is the EOSC Federation taking shape across Europe, and what opportunities does it offer researchers, research organisations and the wider research and innovation community?"

The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) is a key European initiative supporting Open Science and strengthening the European Research Area. Its emerging Federation is connecting research data, services and infrastructures across borders and research communities, making it easier for researchers to discover, access and use resources across Europe.

As the Federation enters its implementation phase, this event will take stock of progress and explore what it means in practice for the wider European research and innovation community. Participants will hear perspectives from European policy, the EOSC community, EOSC Nodes and research, including practical examples of different approaches to implementation and the value the Federation can offer researchers and research organisations.

The event is aimed at a broad European audience, including researchers and research organisations, policymakers, funders, research managers, Open Science and research data professionals, and research infrastructure and e-infrastructure providers.
