SUMMARY:ERA-LEARN Networking Event 2026: Bridging European Partnerships: Connecting\, Sharing\, Growing
DESCRIPTION:ERA-LEARN will organise a networking event for the European Partnership community on 18 November 2026 in Vienna\, Austria. The one-day event will start in the morning and conclude with a networking dinner in the evening. \nThe event will focus on the implementation of FP9 partnerships\, on fostering networking and exchange among stakeholders. Building on a targeted and interactive format\, it will bring together a focused group of participants to facilitate in-depth discussions and practical knowledge sharing. The programme will consist of plenary sessions and parallel\, hands-on workshops addressing key aspects of the implementation of current partnerships\, enabling participants to exchange experiences\, identify good practices and discuss common challenges in an open and collaborative setting. Networking will be facilitated with a networking tool. \nIn line with this implementation-oriented approach\, the event will not address discussions on FP10 or portfolio building\, thereby complementing the broader strategic discussions taking place in the Partnership Stakeholder Forum to be organized in 2027. However\, the event will provide an open space for participants interested in exchanging views on FP10 in an informal setting. This activity is participant-led and does not involve formal participation of the European Commission. \nThe workshop topics were organised based on proposals gathered from European Partnerships. They explore various aspects of a subject from different perspectives.

SUMMARY:Gaia-X Summit 2026
DESCRIPTION:Gaia‑X Summit 2026 will take place on 19–20 November in Vienna\, Austria\, in cooperation with Gaia‑X Hub Austria\, operated by AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH. Under the theme “Season 2.0 of Sovereign\, Trusted AI & Data Ecosystems” \nGaia-X “Season 2.0” marks the transition from technical development to large-scale market adoption of data spaces in Europe and beyond. \n“Season 1.0” established the foundation: a unified architecture and essential building blocks that enable trusted data transactions\, alongside organisational frameworks that support business\, legal\, and governance interoperability. Gaia-X Trust Framework now enables automated compliance checking\, supported by operational Digital Clearing Houses. \nProgress includes 600+ cloud and edge services in the CISPE catalogue\, 14 of which meeting Gaia-X Label Level 3\, and 200+ use cases across Lighthouse Ecosystems. Standards are advancing through CEN/CENELEC and ISO/IEC. \nBuilding on this foundation\, Gaia-X is entering Season 2.0 of sovereign\, trusted AI & data Ecosystems\, with a focus on accelerating market adoption and delivering tangible economic value. \nPriorities include establishing economically sustainable operations for data spaces\, promoting the uptake of existing technologies\, and enabling the provision of trustworthy data for trustworthy AI applications. \nA strong emphasis is also placed on simplifying participation for SMEs and advancing cross-data-space interoperability to reduce fragmentation and strengthen Europe’s strategic data autonomy. Standardisation efforts will continue in close collaboration with European and international bodies. \nAs a result\, Gaia-X is moving towards a future where trust is automated\, sovereignty is actionable\, and Europe’s digital future is built on shared\, secure\, and transparent foundations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy join\n\n\n\n\nAchieve higher levels of compliance with significantly greater efficiency\, leading to measurable cost reductions.\nEnable greater transparency and faster decision-making by integrating the Trust Framework into operations\, enabling compliance automation and supporting quicker\, data-driven decisions.\nUnlock scalable value creation by enabling organisations to collaborate across ecosystems\, making it easier to develop\, scale\, and monetise data products and insights within trusted networks.\nLow entry barriers and ease of adoption ensure the solution remains practical and cost-effective to implement and simple to use\, balancing upfront investment with longer-term value realisation.\nGlobal reach and relevance are reflected in international participation from Canada\, South Korea\, and Japan\, demonstrating applicability to global digital and supply chains beyond a purely European focus.

SUMMARY:Open Science 2027
DESCRIPTION:On 18 and 19 March 2027\, the fifth Open Science Festival in the German-speaking world will bring this discussion to the University of Bamberg. The festival will provide a platform for researchers\, early-career scholars\, students\, citizen scientists\, and staff from libraries\, infrastructure organisations and research institutions to exchange experiences and develop new perspectives on open scholarship. \nThe first programme elements have now been announced—and they indicate that the festival will address Open Science not as an isolated reform project\, but as part of a changing scientific and political environment. \nShaping knowledge together\nThe festival will open with a joint keynote by René Aquarius\, speaking from the perspective of a researcher and “Science Sleuth”\, and myself\, contributing the perspective of a research infrastructure organisation. \nOur topic will be Open Science in a Changing World. We will examine the role Open Science can play in the collective production of knowledge\, with particular attention to artificial intelligence\, global uncertainty and the risk that scientific knowledge may lose public relevance and authority. The keynote will be followed by an open discussion with the participants. \nThese questions are not merely theoretical. Artificial intelligence is already transforming the production and communication of knowledge. At the same time\, political\, economic and ecological uncertainty is placing pressure on research institutions and on public trust in science. Under these conditions\, openness cannot be reduced to providing access to publications or data. It also concerns the transparency of processes\, the reliability of infrastructures and the capacity of science to remain intelligible and relevant to society. \nFrom principles to practice\nSeveral programme elements will focus on the practical implementation of Open Science. \nA Data Challenge in the field of Music Information Retrieval will make Open Science principles tangible through collaborative work with data. Another session will examine the implementation of Open Science in Horizon Europe projects. The Bavarian Agency for Digital Affairs\, byte\, will contribute a hands-on workshop. \nThe planned “Share & Connect” mentoring programme extends the festival beyond the two days in Bamberg. Mentors and mentees will be matched to exchange ideas\, experiences and challenges over the course of a year. The collaboration will begin with a workshop during the festival. \nThe concluding programme will turn to Citizen Science. Writer and director of the International Artists’ House Villa Concordia\, Nora Gomringer\, will give a keynote\, followed by presentations from Citizen Science projects including the Love Letter Archive and the Bavarian Association for the Protection of Birds. A panel will discuss the possibilities\, added value and limits of genuine public participation in research. For the first time in the history of the German-language Open Science Festival\, this part of the programme will be open to the interested public. \nThe programme is still open\nThe announced sessions are only the beginning. The festival programme is intended to be shaped by the Open Science community itself\, and the Call for Proposals is currently open. \nContributions are invited in the form of five-minute Lightning Talks\, 90-minute interactive workshops\, posters\, tool demonstrations and project showcases. Proposals may address all areas of Open Science\, with particular emphasis on three thematic fields: \n\nshaping knowledge together in a changing world;\ntranslating Open Science from knowledge into action in research and teaching;\ndeveloping infrastructures\, services and standards that make Open Science possible in practice.\n\nThe main conference language will be German\, but contributions in English are explicitly welcome. \nThe submission deadlines are: \n\n15 October 2026 for Lightning Talks and workshops;\n15 December 2026 for posters\, tool-marketplace contributions and project showcases.\n\nOpen Science cannot be developed exclusively through declarations\, policies or technical infrastructures. It also requires places in which experiences can be compared\, failures discussed\, tools tested and new collaborations initiated. The Open Science Festival 2027 aims to provide such a place. \nThe programme is taking shape. It remains open—and it invites contributions.
