OGF-Europe Strategy

OGF-Europe is aligned with OGF's global mission of pervasive Grid adoption through interoperable software standards. Key deliverables include outreach seminars and workshops, adoption challenges and recommendations reports; community surveys, best practice reports and tutorials.

OGF-Europe also co-ordinates an "Industry Experts" group to better understand how European enterprises are dealing with issues surrounding interoperations and standardisation and to engage them in the core work of OGF.
