    Lessons Learned and the Road Ahead: Building on the Success of RIS Synergy

    The RIS Synergy project was launched in March 2020 under the leadership of TU Wien and is a part of the Research Data Cluster, which brings together digitisation projects to improve research support along the scientific project cycle. The project is funded by the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research (BMBWF) as part of the "Digital and Social Transformation in Higher Education" call for proposals. Initially starting with 13 partners (10 universities and 3 research funding institutions), the project consortium now includes 18 participating institutions (14 universities, 4 research funding institutions). The goals of RIS Synergy encompass optimising administrative support for research projects, enhancing data quality and transparency for research institutions, and improving the quality of research data. It addresses key aspects of digital transformation within a cross-institutional consortium. The project is divided into two subprojects: Subproject One, “Interfaces and Standards”, focuses on developing standardised access and exchange options for the systems of funding organisations, research institutions, and public administrative bodies. Subproject Two, “Concept Study for a Research Portal”, then analyses the framework conditions and requirements for creating an Austrian national research portal. Thus, RIS Synergy aims to enhance visibility for science by standardising and digitising services, as well as by establishing expert networks. This paper offers insights into the project’s overall approach, key findings from the last four years as well as lessons learned, and provides an outlook on future challenges related to the project's conclusion and its transition to regular operations.

    CRIS2024 conference round table on the topic of national/regional research portals and research information systems. Two years after the CRIS2022 workshop "National Research Portal 101: The dos and don'ts of building a sustainable portal" at http://hdl.handle.net/11366/1976 that initiated the CRISCROS Working Group on National and Regional Research Portals, the working group would like to present the findings of almost two years of collaboration in a specific session dedicated to this topic. The activity was conducted as a one-hour session with the participation of working group participants as well as other interested conference visitors. The round table was coordinated - both structurally and in terms of content - by the RIS Synergy project.

    CRISCROS report: euroCRIS Working Group on National/Regional Research Portals

    This paper introduces the CRISCROS project, an international working group that explores the topic of national and regional research portals. CRISCROS brings together various initiatives to collaborate and discuss best practices. Moreover, the members are particularly interested in highlighting the challenges of managing research information on a large scale (national, regional, consortial). In this paper, we present how the working group offers both experienced and new projects a platform for accessible and engaging exchange. Furthermore, we offer insight into CRISCROS’ goals and topics and provide a summary of our findings.
