"Switch-on was selected for the big potential and impact that Switch-On can create, and its alignment with the main policy priorities (Open Science, Open Innovation) of the EU research," says Jose-Miguel Rubio-Iglesias for the EC, DG Research & Innovation.
Berit Arheimer, SMHI researcher and project coordinator in the Switch-On consortium, is very proud of the recognition:
"There’s a huge potential in cooperation across Europe, and we are creating this success together. I am proud of the hard work by all partners involved and the efficient Project Office at SMHI."
