EOSC Symposium 2026

Session

Automating data FAIRification

Track 2: EOSC best practices and user experience

15 Oct 2026, 14:30

Palazzo dei Congressi, Florence

Description

Chairs:
Erik Schultes (Consultant, GO FAIR Foundation);
Giorgio Rossi (EOSC Steering Board and Professor,Università degli Studi di Milano)

Objectives:
– Provide an overview of the state of the art in the production of FAIR datasets (e.g. by research infrastructures) by either FAIR-by-design technologies or by ex-post FAIRification by algorithms and compute.
– Provide the outlook on how the necessary level of productivity (in the limit of all new data 100% FAIR) can be reached by the two methods, and/or their combination, from the perspectives of technology, economy, transferability of solutions.
