Engagement of the GROOM RI with nations from Europe (Johannes Kartensen – GEOMAR, Ulpu Leijala – FMI and Paul Gaughan – MI)

Open to general public upon invitation.

Duration: 2 hours incl. 15 min break

Rationale for the workshop: The GROOM RI is expected to provide services to its members but also must be open for collaboration and possible interested parties from outside the GROOM RI. These interested parties may be attracted by operations of the GROOM RI or services indirectly linked to the GROOM RI (e.g. making use of data that stems from GROOM RI operations).
