1. This development essentially entails that all authors in the participating countries now have a venue where they can publish #openaccess without any fees. 2. The vision is to develop Open Research Europe (ORE) "as a collective non-profit open access publishing service for the public good". https://op.europa.eu/en/publication-detail/-/publication/3603e219-6a65-11ef-a8ba-01aa75ed71a1/language-en 2/4
