e-ScienceTalk and iMENTORS, Two EU co-funded projects join forces for e-Infrastructures
A memorandum of understanding (MoU), a document describing a bilateral agreement, was signed between e-ScienceTalk and iMENTORS on 23 May 2013 indicating an intended common line of action. The two projects have a common interest in a close co-operation in order to achieve their respective objectives. This MoU specifies the way in which such cooperation will be undertaken.
e-Infrastructures– electronic research infrastructures– are networked tools, data and resources used by the worldwide research and education community to conduct collaborative projects and generate, exchange and preserve knowledge.
e-infrastructure represent a new way of collaborating and sharing resources independently of the user’s geographical location, and are the key enabler for virtual global research communities and a driver for social and economic well-being and development. 
e-ScienceTalk brings the success stories of Europe's e-infrastructure to a wider audience. The project coordinates the dissemination outputs of EGI and other European e-Infrastructure projects, ensuring their results and influence are reported in print and online.
iMENTORS is a one-stop-shop data warehouse on all e-infrastructure development projects of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).
This project has received funding from the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme for research, technological development and demonstration under grant agreement no 313203 Copyright © 2014 iMENTORS. All rights reserved.
