We will meet on Tuesday, 7^th October and Wednesday, 8^th October, in the meeting room of the LCE (Laboratoire de Chimie de l’Environnement), building 10, on the 4^th floor. The address is:

Université d'Aix-Marseille

3 place Victor Hugo - Case 29
CS 80249

which is a 6 min walk from Marseille Saint-Charles. The lunch on Tuesday as well as the coffee breaks on both days are covered by ACTRIS as the current chairperson. On Wednesday there will be no separate lunch but the one from IRISCC meeting afterwards. A joint dinner is not planned.

The meeting materials are saved on the ENVRI Board Redmine system and are available here.

For the discussion on the EOSC node you will find background documents:

For the ENVRINNOV session on Tuesday morning, Marina Papageorgiou asks you to have a look at the two documents linked below prior to the meeting, as the plan is to present/discuss them during the in-person session.

These are the:

ENVRI Innovation Roadmap v1.0 (Initial Draft for Consultation): https://envri.eu/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/ENVRINNOV_MS15-ENVRI-Innovation-Roadmap-v1.0.pdf
ENVRI White paper: Comprehensive analysis of emerging technology needs and service gaps in environmental Research Infrastructures: https://envri.eu/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Milestone-1.2-Scientific-White-Paper.pdf

As per the ENVRINNOV project plan, both documents are to be reviewed and revised based on ENVRI Board discussions and input.

We are looking forward to seeing you in person next week.

Best regards,

Ines
