Open Science Day – Wednesday, December 4, 2024
You are invited to the Open Science Day and the national EOSC tripartite event, which will take place on December 3–4, 2024, at the Four Points by Sheraton Ljubljana (Mons) hotel. This year’s event will feature in-depth discussions on the future of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC), the new EOSC EU Node, the essential role of national open science infrastructure, and the main challenges and opportunities that open knowledge brings to modern science. The event is designed for researchers, innovation experts, representatives of research institutions and higher education, and anyone else who is interested in the matter. Be sure to register on time, as the number of participants is limited.
The first day (December 3) will be dedicated to international topics and will be held in English. From 9:00 to 17:40, the participants will listen to prominent speakers, including representatives from the European Commission, the EOSC Association, the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation, as well as the leading experts in open science, copyright and intellectual property, and research infrastructure for FAIR research data.
