The EVERSE - Funders Forum Workshop
The EVERSE - Funders Forum Workshop will take place in the SciLifeLab in Uppsala, Sweden.
The workshop aims to serve as a platform for EVERSE to showcase their work and receive input from potential funders and relevant community projects. Moreover, particular focus will be given to the critical aspect of software sustainability. Stakeholders of particular relevance in the workshop are Funders and Policy Makers, in order to increase awareness of the challenges and opportunities around research software.
Save the date: Tuesday, September 10th. Workshop is planned as a full day (9.00 am – 5.30 pm CEST)
The main goal of the workshop is to serve as a platform for EVERSE to showcase the work of the project, and receive input from all relevant stakeholders, while facilitating networking and collaboration opportunities between all participants. Stakeholders of particular relevance at the workshop are Funders and Policy Makers, in order to increase awareness of the challenges and opportunities around research, as well as relevant community projects. The expectation is for participants to bring with them their communities’ best practices and services on research software (including, but not limited to, quality, management, sustainability, excellence, etc.) in order to engage with EVERSE, while also establishing a bidirectional channel of communication moving forward.
