ESFRI sets up Strategy Working Group on Data, Computing and Digital Research Infrastructures

ESFRI, the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures, has announced that it has decided to proceed in establishing a Strategy Working Group on Data, Computing and Digital Research Infrastructures (SWG DIGIT) to deal with the evaluation of novel proposals with a dominant, or substantial, digital research infrastructure character. This type of proposals has been proposed to the 2018 ESFRI Roadmap. In setting up this Strategy Working Group, ESFRI is completing the set of SWGs for the identified areas of Research Infrastructures of the Roadmap.

The Strategy Working Group on Data, Computing and Digital Research Infrastructures is to be chaired by Professor Ana Proykova. At its establishment, it consists of the current e-Infrastructures experts of the other five SWGs, Sergio Girona (ES), Norbert Meyer (PL), Arjen Van Rijn (NL), Francoise Genova (FR) and Panos Argyrakis (GR), and up to nine members proposed by the ESFRI Forum, as well as European Commission representatives.
