Hi -- Please excuse the cross-posting.

ORCID would like to invite you to the following upcoming meeting, a side meeting of TNC21. Hope to see you there!

*FIM / ORCID AFFINITY GROUP MEETING* Collaboration between ORCID, Federation participants, and FIM solutions has grown. Federations lead ORCID consortia of institutions; ORCID signin has been considered as an IdP of Last Resort for research collaboration tools; unique Institutional credentials have been linked to over 320,000 ORCID accounts, ORCID iDs are included in the eduPerson schema; and iDs are sometimes used to better understand identity linkages when individuals change institutions. Conversations happen globally among ORCID, federation operators, practitioners, software providers, and standards committees, though rarely over the entirety of this group at the same time. Here we convene to consider strategic topics that involve the ORCID platform or iDs, and deepen collaboration among the ORCID and FIM communities.

Thursday, 17 June 2021 | 13:30 - 15:30 CEST (online) Registration: https://events.geant.org/event/865/ (no charge)

WHO IS THIS MEETING FOR? Individuals from federation operators, practitioners, software providers, and standards committees that have been involved in ORCID connections. Also welcome are individuals that want to learn more about how the ORCID and FIM communities are collaborating.

Thanks!

Best, Laura Paglione (on behalf of ORCID) [image: https://laurapaglione.com] https://laurapaglione.com Be different. Laura Paglione LauraPaglione.com https://laurapaglione.com/ lpaglione@SphericalCowGroup.com lpaglione@sphericalcowgroup.com
