OpenAIRE and the European Open Science Cloud

OpenAIRE fulfils the EOSC vision

OpenAIRE’s mission is closely linked to the mission of the European Commission: to provide unlimited, barrier free, open access to research outputs financed by public funding in Europe.

OpenAIRE is a member in the EOSC Association with operations (services-policies-training) providing the glue for many research functions, both in the long tail of science (repositories and local support) and in domain disciplined research communities (Research Infrastructures).
