GÉANT witnessing a historic moment in Marseille 🇫🇷
This week, GÉANT joined AFR-IX telecom, ASREN, the European Investment Bank, French authorities & North African operators for the first landing of the Medusa Submarine Cable System on the French coast.
This milestone has been co-financed by the European Union through the Connecting Europe Facility (CEF) programme, under AFR-IX’s ATMED–DG and ATMED Nador–DG projects.
GÉANT is proud to contribute to this effort through the #EUMEDplus project.

At #TNC25 we asked our community some tough (and funny) questions about #cybersecurity, #AI, and mindfulness. And their answers might surprise you.
Today we kick off the #GEANTCybersecurity 2025 campaign: "Be mindful. Stay safe."
▶️ Watch, reflect, and ask yourself: How would you answer?

Join us for an infoshare on the @OpenAIREGraph and its API!
As one of the world’s largest research knowledge graphs, it interlinks hundreds of millions of metadata records from over 100K trusted data sources & serves as the authoritative source for the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC).
Stefania Amodeo from @OpenAIRE will introduce how this open resource supports researchers & institutions—and how the API can create value for #NRENs and their communities.

Last month, GÉANT hosted the European e-Infrastructures Assembly, bringing together directors and senior representatives of EGI Foundation, EUDAT, @OpenAIRE, and PRACE.
Nine months in, it was a great moment to reflect on our collaboration so far, and where we go next to better support European Research & Education community.
Thanks to all involved for the open, honest conversations and shared commitment to working together.
