I’m proud of the team and excited at how the research community is showing an interest and getting involved in the transformation of research, with a growing emphasis on defining the next-generation tools and services needed for this vital change!”

NFDI4Ing brings together the engineering and research data communities with the aim of both advancing and unifying international (research) data management and fostering exchange. The conference featured discussions on open issues and future challenges on topics such as terminologies, metadata, ontologies, repositories and much more! The consortium represents engineers from all walks of the profession and offers a unique method-oriented and user-centred approach in order to make engineering research data FAIR – findable, accessible, interoperable, and re-usable. In addition, the conference offered opportunities for networking and community engagement.
