iMENTORS Newsletter - Issue #3
This edition of the iMENTORS newsletter gives you more in-depth insights into current issues in the world of e-infrastructure, research infrastructure, national /regional research and education networks, ICT and data. Read it online!
e-Infrastructures are changing the way that science is carried out. e-Infrastructures– electronic research infrastructures – are collections of ICT based resources and services used by the worldwide research and education community to conduct collaborative projects and generate, exchange and preserve knowledge.
e-Infrastructures add economic value both to business and research as well as enable ‘e-Government’. They are crucial in order to foster scientific excellence, promote global scientific partnerships and stimulate the development of high-quality human capital.
iMENTORS, launched in April 2012 by Stockholm University and Gov2u and co-funded by the European Commission is a web-based platform serving as a knowledge repository for sharing and aggregating data on e-infrastructure projects throughout sub-Saharan Africa.
Join our Community of Practice! Register and create your own or your organisation’s public profile to exchange ideas, expertise and best practices, find partners, contacts and opportunities in e-infrastructure development, or increase the visibility of your own project.
In the next edition of our newsletter, our team will share the latest updates on projects we are currently participating in, upcoming events and interesting news that have caught our interest.
We hope you enjoy reading this issue of the iMENTORS newsletter!
