- 20. The role of the European Commission • 2012 : EC recommendation to member states • 2014 : OA mandatory in Horizon2020 funding program • 2015 Moedas’ “vision” : open innovation, open science, open to the world • 2016 Amsterdam call for action on Open Science • 2018 Open Research Europe platform (ORE) • 2018 “Plan S” • European Open Science Cloud

Editor's Notes
- #28: Marin : OPERAS is a fast growing consortium of 35 partners coming from 11 EU countries. 9 partners secured support letter from their Ministry and constitutes de facto National Nodes. OPERAS development is currently supported by 2 H2020 projects : OPERAS-D and HIRMEOS.
- #29: Marin : how will we do that ? 1st : by integrating the long tail of players (the small university presses and publication platforms) in the OS framework which allows to scale up the scientific quality they guarantee to their own users community Marin : 2nd : by federating the long tail of content disseminated on many university, national, international platforms through a single discovery platform that entails greater impact and trust Marin : and last by establishing a portfolio of services provided by the different partners, to support their sustainability and integrate them into EOSC
