CONNECT Community Calls

Are you a Community Gateway Manager or interested in becoming one? OpenAIRE invites you to participate in our Community Calls, held every four months online.
Explore the latest CONNECT updates, share feedback with peers, and discuss new features, fostering collaboration and shaping CONNECT's future together.
  • Timeline: The meetings will be held every four months and are open to all to register. They will last an hour and will provide a perfect opportunity to answer any questions on CONNECT Gateways, detailed information on the Managemenent and Configuration, Templates, Features, APIs, Guidelines, Integrations.

  • Structure: The meetings will have a generic structure with a particular topic of interest each time.
    1. Relevant updates (5 min.),
    2. Main topic presentation (30 min),
    3. Open discussion on community questions and comments (25 min.).

    Meetings will be held for researchers using CONNECT and equally for CONNECT Gateway Admins. The invitations sent out each month will make explicit which meeting is for whom.
