RICH Europe is an 84-month coordination and support action, building on the experience and achievements of the H2020-funded research infrastructure networks (RICH and RICH-2).

The overall aim of the project is to enhance and support the professionalism and harmonization of services provided by the National Contact Points (NCPs) for Research Infrastructures across Europe, as well as to contribute to the consolidation of the European research infrastructure ecosystem.

The activities of RICH Europe are designed to upgrade the overall level of support provided to programme applicants, strengthen the knowledge of Research Infrastructure (RI) stakeholders regarding EU calls and programmes, increase awareness of opportunities for transnational and virtual access to research infrastructures, and foster collaboration among RIs at both European and international levels.
