Resumen

Eclipse Foundation AISBL[1] is the biggest Open Source organization within the EU. It the home for over 400 projects[2] covering a wide range of knowledge areas. It also hosts 18 groups of companies (Working Groups) forming an ecosystem of over 300 organizations[3] that supports the development of many of these projects, as well as the creation of a variety of specifications within different industries.

Eclipse Foundation has a long history of fruitful relations with research and development projects[4] and organizations worldwide, and specifically in Europe.

During this session, an introduction of Eclipse Foundation will be delivered, insisting on our main value proposition, followed by a short description of some of the most relevant projects, especially in the area of Research, in which we are involved.

We will finalise the presentation describing how The Eclipse Foundation interacts with these R&D organizations and institutions as a needed requirement towards exploring together potential collaboration vectors in the near future.
