EOSCpilot project will
                      establish the governance framework for the EOSC and 
                    contribute to the development of European open science 
                    policy and best practice;
                     develop a number of pilots that integrate services and 
                    infrastructures to demonstrate interoperability in a number 
                    of scientific domains; and
                     engage with a broad range of stakeholders, crossing borders 
                    and communities, to build the trust and skills required for 
                    adoption of an open approach to scientific research
