Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) (v1.3, 2024)

The overall purpose of the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) is to define the general framework for future research, development and innovation activities in relation to the European Open Science Cloud.

The SRIA is of interest to all the individuals and organisations interested in or impacted by EOSC, both now and within the timeframe of Horizon Europe. This includes research-performing organisations, research funders, service providers, governmental organisations, private industry and citizens. Naturally the European Commission is also a key stakeholder for the SRIA as it is used to inform the work programmes via the Multi-Annual Roadmap (MAR), which forms Section 8 of the SRIA, and which is updated yearly, drawing on inputs from EOSC Association member organisations, Task Forces and the EOSC community at large.

This framework develops in the context of the EOSC Partnership:
