EOSC-Nordic

Project description

A new path to European research and innovation in Nordic and Baltic countries

The vision of the European Union’s Open Science Cloud (EOSC) is to give Europe a global lead in scientific data infrastructures to ensure that European scientists reap the full benefits of data-driven science. In line with this ambitious objective, the EU-funded EOSC-Nordic project will organise initiatives to support and develop open science and open innovation in Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Netherlands, and Sweden. Their aim is to facilitate the coordination of these initiatives within the Nordic and Baltic countries and exploit synergies to achieve greater harmonisation at policy and service provision across these countries. The project aims to catalyse the Nordic and Baltic uptake of the EOSC to maintain world-class research infrastructure.

Objective

EOSC-Nordic aims to facilitate the coordination of EOSC relevant initiatives within the Nordic and Baltic countries and exploit synergies to achieve greater harmonisation at policy and service provisioning across these countries, in compliance with EOSC agreed standards and practices. By doing so, the project seeks to establish the Nordic and Baltic countries as frontrunners in the take-up of the EOSC concept, principles and approach. EOSC-Nordic brings together a strong consortium of 24 partners including e-Infrastructure providers, research performing organisations and expert networks, with national mandates with regards to the provision of research services and open science policy, and wide experience of engaging with the research community and mobilising national governments, funding agencies, international bodies and global initiatives and high-level experts on EOSC strategic matters.
