International Conference on Research Infrastructures (ICRI) 2018 in Vienna

Objective

ICRI 2018

Research infrastructures are among the core enablers of competitive research alongside basic science, development and innovation to advance the frontiers of our knowledge. These research infrastructures are often operated by international consortia and are applicable in various disciplines and stakeholder communities. Research infrastructures are constantly under pressure to adapt due to the advancements in science, research and technology.
All these aspects underline the importance of research infrastructures but at the same time demonstrate the challenges and the complexity that occur within the construction, implementation, operation, funding and international cooperation. This calls for an exchange and discussion on an international level regarding topics such as governance, operations and the general policy area for research infrastructures.
Respecting the need for international attention to the aforementioned policy area, the ECRI was vital towards establishing a conference format that can lead a new millennium onwards. Subsequently, the focus was widened to an international level (ICRI).
The overall objective of this proposal is to organize and further establish this dynamic international forum on research infrastructures (ICRI), under the 2018 Austrian EU Council Presidency. The ICRI will gather relevant experts, shareholders and stakeholder communities of research infrastructures to discuss challenges and emerging trends for research infrastructures around the world.

The specific objectives of the proposed action are as follows:
- Addressing issues of global interest
Development of global research infrastructures
Long-term sustainability
Innovation potential of research infrastructures
Access and exploitation of data produced by research infrastructures
- Enhancement of international cooperation
- Promotion of Europe’s further strategic outline on research infrastructures - ESFRI Roadmap 2018.
