Building on the previous ELIXIR Scientific Programme, this project supports a portfolio of Infrastructure Services, including the Authentication and Authorisation Infrastructure (AAI), Training e-Support System (TeSS), Beacon Network and Research Software Ecosystem. It introduces a new model for operational, maintenance and governance funding, complementing development funding from other sources. The project will assess the impact and value of these services, establish clear selection and review protocols and recommend long-term sustainability mechanisms.
