Roadmap

The EU Open Research Repository has been launched as a pilot to collect feedback from early adopters and to evaluate the feasibility and usability of the platform before it fully enters service. During the pilot phase, we will continuously implement improvements to the platform. We anticipate the full launch of the EU Open Research Repository in Autumn 2024.

How do I provide feedback?
We would love to hear any feedback you have - what works, what doesn’t, what’s missing and what could be improved. Please send us feedback via the support.
