Record number of entries Dutch Data Prize 2022

The amount is intended to make data more FAIR and encourage data reuse. The winners can use it, for example, to organise a symposium or make their data more accessible online. Each category has three contenders and one winner. Check out the contenders here. “We think it is important that datasets from all fields have a chance,” says Marjan Grootveld (DANS) on behalf of the organising parties Research Data Netherlands (RDNL) and National Programme Open Science . An independent jury, led by Drs Caroline Visser (NWO), will evaluate the entries and choose the winners.

The award ceremony will be on 29 November 2022 at the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht. It is the closing event of the FAIR Data Day | Reusing Data to Advance Science, with an exciting conference programme for researchers, research support professionals and open science enthusiasts.
