The European Commission has taken a crucial step in the creation of a European Open Science Cloud by means of a new recommendation, in which new knowledge can circulate freely through digital and cooperative technologies.

The new recommendation deals with developments in areas such as research data management (eg FAIR data), Text & Data Mining (TDM) and technical standards that enable the reuse of incentive schemes. In addition, it discusses current developments at EU level with regard to the European Open Science Cloud, as well as the enhanced capacity of contemporary data analysis and their role in research. Finally, the document provides clarity on reward systems for researchers to share data and to engage in open science practices on the one hand, and the skills and competences of researchers and staff of research institutions on the other...."
