The list of topics of interest is:

  • Research communities at the Iberian level: examples of collaboration.

  • ESFRI projects in the Iberian area: LIFEWATCH, EMSO,SKA,...

  • Development of innovative software services oriented to the EOSC.

  • R&D for computing services, networking, and data-driven science at the Iberian level.

The event will consist of plenary, thematically oriented presentations by ESFRI / International Research communities in the landscape of the Iberian cooperation level, and key technology and infrastructure providers in the framework of the project EOSC-hub. The thematic presentations will be followed by a number of “lightning talks” by the participants.
