Vienna is this year's home of the EOSC Stakeholders Forum. The Austrian capital city presents plenty of opportunities to unwind, relax and enjoy after your action packed sessions at the forum. 

The Commission decision adopted on 27 August launches the Executive Board for the EOSC as a formal expert group of the Commission.

The expert group will assist the Commission in the first phase of development of the EOSC until end of 2020, and will help to prepare the transition to the second phase of development of the EOSC.

The deadline for applications is 10 October 2018.

Recently, there's been a lot of buzz around the rules of participation and its implications for the operation of the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).

Launching the Open Consultation on the European Open Science Cloud Rules of Participation and FAIR Data Action Plan clearly signalled the vision of the European Commission for  the EOSC to be as less Brussels-centric as possible. However, it also brought about a lot of questions.

What will happen after the consultation is closed? Who decides what goes in the Rules of Participation in the end? Where can I find a compilation or analysis of the results of the consultation after it ends? These are some of the questions we will answer today.
