Great new format for the meeting where we discuss the issues of relevance to the ERICs more than typical presentations.
So far we cover: ERIC regulation, funding for access, international reach, impact of infrastructures and more.
@instruct-eric.bsky.social has contributed to all of these issues
In the first practical session of the Annual Meeting, Giuseppe Cimo (Joint Institute for VLBI ERIC) guided the audience in identifying the main challenges of the ERIC Regulation in distributed RIs 💫 Lots of comments and important insights were gained! 👏
The #ERICForum Annual Meeting has begun. Two days of discussion, exchange of ideas, and important panels on central topics for #ERICs and the ERA. Tomorrow the election of the new Chair and Vice-Chair. Wishing everyone a great meeting!
Just arrived in Brussels! Looking forward to discuss the work done with respect to improve ERICs international engagement
