Dear colleagues, a few pieces of information from the ERIC FORUM ExBo! Attached you will find three documents: - a short compilation of elements that were sent to DG RTD, on their request, about the impacts of geopolitical changes on our operations, thanks to those who replied; - a set of slides presented during a meeting between the chair of the ExBo and the Commission where DG CONNECT presented the EDICs (some of you might remember the discussion at the EF annual meeting in Brussels in January); - a description of the current landscape, with the ERICs in the making. I hope these will be of interest for you!
