General Assembly Meeting WP6: Collaboration, Communication and Dissemination Ute Gunsenheimer, ESS | WP Co-leader for Tasks 6.1, 6.2, 6.3 Juliette Forneris, DTI | WP Co-leader for Task 6.4 BrightnESS is funded by the European Union Framework Programme for Research and Innovation Horizon 2020, under grant agreement 676548
Overview of WP6 Objectives: Strengthen the community building between members of the supply chain and stakeholders by gaining future users’ trust from science and industry. Raise awareness for ESS as the role model for managing large-scale IKC. Support the exchange of best practice among RIs which are built with a significant amount of IKC. Task 6.2 Enlargement of Task 6.3 Strengthening the ILO Task 6.1 Collaboration building Task 6.4 Communication and membership Network and outreach dissemination of results Establish an approved Expand the ILO Network into a Gain future users’ trust by Internally and externally systematic process for engaging trans-national innovation identifying relevant target communicate progress on the with potential new partners, mediating entity, and facilitate groups, analysing their needs project and on ESS, and to and then apply that process to the formation of trans-national and expectations, and achieve a broad and audience- attract new members. industry-led consortia. organizing tailored networking specific dissemination of and outreach activities. information.

Needs of Industrial Users Communication dedicated •Info about the benefits of neutron research, and the complementarity of to industry neutron scattering techniques with X-rays and other methods •Preference for robust and standard beam lines Medium and small-sized •Large RIs seen mainly as a tool for optimisation rather than development of new facilities products Effective and standardized •Administrative procedures need to meet the timescale and needs of companies access policies Technical support and •Dedicated point-of-contact at RI, possibly an instrument scientists, to assist with infrastructure technical issues, data analysis and logistics •Interest in online and in-situ training courses along with hands-on training Dedicated training provided by the instrument scientists during experiments
