The European Open Science Cloud: Who pays for what?

On 4 December 2017, members of the Science|Business Network’s Cloud Consultation Group met to discuss the economics of the European Union’s proposed “science cloud” project. This report is based partly on those discussions, but is ultimately a product of Science|Business. The views expressed herein do not necessarily reflect those of individual members.
This report is the third in a series that the group is working on, to gather private and public sector expertise on topics of importance to the development of the European Open Science Cloud. The other reports are available here:
