About EOSC
The European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) looks to accelerate the deployment and consolidation of an open, trusted, virtual, federated environment in Europe to store, share and re-use research data across borders and scientific disciplines and provide access to a rich array of related services. It will bring together institutional, national and European initiatives and relevant stakeholders in order to develop together a science commons where data is Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable (FAIR) and where research-enabling and other services are made available throughout Europe. EOSC will enhance the possibilities for researchers to find, share and reuse publications, data, and software in Europe, facilitating new insights and innovations, higher research productivity, and improved reproducibility in science.
