❓Do you know what Europe’s fifth freedom is?
❗The free movement of research, innovation & knowledge.
The route towards this freedom was at the heart of the ERA Symposium 2025, which featured a keynote from European Commissioner Ekaterina Zaharieva and speeches from Austrian Ministers Eva-Maria Holzleitner and Peter Hanke.
We were honoured to present Open Knowledge Maps at this high-level event, and we're excited to help advance a more open and connected European Research Area.
📈 Better data, better discovery
Our PubMed integration now uses Crossref citations for more accurate research overviews.
Citations determine the scale of both research areas and documents on our PubMed maps.

🤝 Responsible research assessment is key to advancing open science. At Open Knowledge Maps, we believe that assessment should be open, transparent, and recognise the full diversity of research contributions.
That’s why we’ve joined CoARA (@CoARAssessment) - to help foster practices that go beyond traditional metrics and support a more inclusive and equitable research system 🌍
We're excited to be part of this international movement for change! ✨
The Open Science Festival was truly inspiring! ✨
The programme sparked discussions on the past, present & future of #OpenScience - including its challenges and unintended consequences. It was also great to reconnect with friends and colleagues from Austria, Germany, and beyond.
A big thank you to everyone who joined the @OKMaps Scavenger Hunt 🙌 and huge congratulations to the winners, Team Baby Mac! 🏆
As summer draws to a close, we celebrate new connections 🌻
We warmly welcome BOKU University as a supporting member! BOKU University is the 10th Austrian institution to pledge their support to Open Knowledge Maps.
