As Europe moves toward an integrated, open scientific ecosystem, a successful end of 2024 will be marked by EUDAT Conference 2024. Open science, which emphasizes accessibility, collaboration, and the free flow of knowledge, is pertinent for innovation and progress across the continent. 


For those invested in shaping the future of research, data sharing, and management, the EUDAT Conference—taking place December 3-5, 2024, in Karlsruhe, Germany—offers a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and contribute to a fairer, more open scientific landscape.


Why Attend the EUDAT Conference?


With a rapidly expanding network of research communities across Europe, EUDAT serves as a cornerstone of open science, dedicated to building interoperable and accessible data services for all disciplines. If you are still considering whether to get your ticket and join us for discussions over gluwein, here are some of the key reasons why you should:  


1.    Networking and Collaboration
The EUDAT Conference will bring together practitioners, researchers, data managers, and open science enthusiasts from research institutions and infrastructures, e-infrastructures, service providers and EU projects from across Europe.  With participants coming from 35 cities across Europe, this unique forum will spark collaborations, whether you’re looking to share data, find partners for projects, or engage with top European researchers.


2.    Expanding on FAIR Data Principles
A core theme of the conference is the promotion of the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable), which are central to open science. Sessions will cover how to implement these principles practically and showcase successful case studies including e-Infrastructures such as FAIRCORE4EOSC, OPENAIRE, GEANT, and more. This is an ideal opportunity to learn how FAIR data can elevate the impact and reproducibility of your research.


3.    Celebration of latest Open Science Discoveries
Attendees can participate in workshops and demonstrations to learn about cutting-edge tools and solutions for data management, curation, and storage. EUDAT’s data services, which simplify and standardize data handling, will be showcased, providing practical insights into how these can be implemented within different research settings.
