What is this about?
The Fellowship of the Data — International RDM Community Meeting 2026 will take place on September 21 and 22 at the University of Vienna. Two Meetings have taken place in Germany already (2023 and 2025) with each ca. 80 participants from diverse backgrounds. Now, we continue the series: Let's get together in Vienna and cultivate our supportive environment dedicated to the advancement of RDM!
Continuing the spirit of 2025: "The Fellowship of the Data is fueled by enthusiasm for Research Data Management (RDM) and networking. Founded by RDM trainers and data stewards, we want to offer an open space for everyone with aligned interests that fosters our community bonds and allows us to find peers from many different contexts and scientific disciplines. We believe in the power of collaboration and knowledge sharing. By exchanging resources, learning from each other's experiences, and forging synergistic teams, we can learn how to better support researchers and stakeholders alike".
The goal of our third RDM Community Meeting is to boost the fellowship of like-minded professionals who assist researchers across various fields in their RDM efforts, whether through training or other means. Keynotes and times for focused exchange were selected carefully to provide us with a program full of relevant and engaging content.
We are excited to learn from our international keynote speakers and to take home practical insights to improve our portfolio!
