WELCOME TO THE PAGE OF THE I3 NETWORK:
i³-NET is a Specific Support Action funded by the European Commission through the Research Infrastructures Activity of the 6th Framework Programme (FP6).

i³-NET brings together 18 Integrated Infrastructures Initiative (I3) (I3) and 3 Coordination Actions (CA) projects. Between them these encompass hundreds of large European Research Infrastructures, ranging from telescopes to botanical collections, used by thousands of European scientists. Together they form one of the core parts of the European Research Area, with an enormous combined research capability and capacity which is of considerable importance for Europe’s future prosperity.
