Open Access in Europe

On the Road to 2020

Optimize impact of publicly-funded research

Faster growth: Better exploitation of research results for and by innovative industry in the ERA – products come faster to the market;

Greater efficiency: foster collaboration and avoid duplication of effort;

More transparency: Involve citizens and society in the scientific process

Why Open Access?

Strong political support

“Scientific information has the power to transform our lives for the better – it is too valuable to be locked away.”

“The question is no longer ‘if’ we should have open access. The question is about ‘how’ we should develop it further and promote it.”

“Access to scientific results for free, for all, for ever is a compelling vision indeed.”
