This initiative aims to enhance understanding and engagement with key issues in the sector. Interested parties can reach out via email or an online enquiry form for further information. In 2019, Science|Business undertook a significant project commissioned by Toyota, conducting a mapping study to identify leading researchers, high-performing research institutions, and promising small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the realm of human and artificial intelligence interactions. The confidential report provided Toyota with valuable insights into the most influential players in Europe within this critical field. The need for robust research infrastructures (RIs) in Europe is underscored by a recent roundtable discussion hosted by Science|Business and Elsevier, focusing on the investment challenges associated with RIs. This event, held on June 16, 2022, brought together representatives from RIs, EU institutions, government officials, funders, scientists, and industry executives to explore the impact of these infrastructures on maintaining Europe’s leadership in science and technology. Additionally, the European Commission's ambitious European Open Science Cloud initiative, launched in April 2016 with a budget of €6.7 billion, aims to transform research, cloud services, and data technologies across Europe. Through ongoing meetings and publications, the initiative fosters dialogue on essential topics such as funding, participation, and technological advancements, with participation from major players like Amazon, Microsoft, and various academic institutions.
