The GÉANT GN5-2 project Above-the-Net Services incubator is looking for practical proposals around three areas of service concept investment being developed by the GÉANT project’s Above-the-Net Services team (GN5-2 WP4). These are:
- Digital Research Environment (DRE)
- Object Storage Infrastructure
- Data Movement Infrastructure
Through the incubator, the GN5-2 project will offer manpower to project partners to develop service Proof-of-Concepts with the eventual aim of extending the GÉANT community’s portfolio of Above-the-Net services.
The initiative ultimately aims to reduce risks associated to the development of innovative ideas before committing resources on the level of a project task or GÉANT service.
ACT NOW!
The call will open on 1 May 2025 and close for proposals on 30 June 2025. This gives interested parties eight weeks to prepare their proposals, fill in the template and submit their applications.
The incubator will award 38 PMs across two to four proposals, based on potential impact, innovation, and overall value to the three service concept development areas.
