The purpose of the agreement is to define a roadmap for establishing a sustainable collaborative framework, to strengthen service provision for the two research infrastructures on specific grand challenges.

The scope of the MoU covers sharing of knowledge, and exploring potential data and data products from facilities of common interest for future data integration and joint exploitation. Experiences and practices in communication, outreach and training, as well as other operational aspects and services will also be exchanged.

We hope the collaboration will take the form of regular meetings between EPOS and ECCSEL dedicated to specific scientific and technological topics, and sharing respective progress in the two respective ERICs.
