Why it matters
The Federation establishes a distributed European research environment that aggregates over 10 million datasets. This infrastructure provides computing, storage, and analytical services across institutional and national boundaries, ushering in a growth phase for the project.
ESC programmes are financed by the EU Commission, with discussions involving a Commission representative in Luxembourg.
