funded by eContentPlus

ePSIplus - Purpose
The ePSIplus Thematic Network:

– Facilitates the major opportunities for business to develop value added
products and services based on PSI.
– The network will be active for 30 months*.
– Covers all Member (EU, EEA, EFTA) and candidate states.
– Covers all PSI domains.
– Will focus on five major themes.
* Commenced on the 1st September 2006 and will be operational through to 28th February 2009. (which
covers the period leading up to the PSI Directive review in 2008 by the European Parliament.)
Has now been operational for 16+ months and during that time has established network links with
Australia, Canada, Southeast Asia and the OECD. That is the topic is a global one not just European or
national.

– Facilitates the major opportunities for business to develop value added
products and services based on PSI.
– The network will be active for 30 months*.
– Covers all Member (EU, EEA, EFTA) and candidate states.
– Covers all PSI domains.
– Will focus on five major themes.
* Commenced on the 1st September 2006 and will be operational through to 28th February 2009. (which
covers the period leading up to the PSI Directive review in 2008 by the European Parliament.)
Has now been operational for 16+ months and during that time has established network links with
Australia, Canada, Southeast Asia and the OECD. That is the topic is a global one not just European or

– Facilitates the major opportunities for business to develop value added
products and services based on PSI.

– Covers all Member (EU, EEA, EFTA) and candidate states.
– Covers all PSI domains.

funded by eContentPlus

ePSIplus - Purpose
The ePSIplus Thematic Network:
– Supports the implementation of the European Directive on PSI re-use.
– Facilitates the major opportunities for business to develop value added
products and services based on PSI.
– The network will be active for 30 months*.
– Covers all Member (EU, EEA, EFTA) and candidate states.
– Covers all PSI domains.
– Will focus on five major themes.
* Commenced on the 1st September 2006 and will be operational through to 28th February 2009. (which
covers the period leading up to the PSI Directive review in 2008 by the European Parliament.)
Has now been operational for 16+ months and during that time has established network links with
Australia, Canada, Southeast Asia and the OECD. That is the topic is a global one not just European or
national.

– Facilitates the major opportunities for business to develop value added
products and services based on PSI.
– The network will be active for 30 months*.
– Covers all Member (EU, EEA, EFTA) and candidate states.
– Covers all PSI domains.
– Will focus on five major themes.
* Commenced on the 1st September 2006 and will be operational through to 28th February 2009. (which
covers the period leading up to the PSI Directive review in 2008 by the European Parliament.)
Has now been operational for 16+ months and during that time has established network links with

The ePSIplus Thematic Network:
– Supports the implementation of the European Directive on PSI re-use.
– Facilitates the major opportunities for business to develop value added
products and services based on PSI.
– The network will be active for 30 months*.
– Covers all Member (EU, EEA, EFTA) and candidate states.
– Covers all PSI domains.
– Will focus on five major themes.
* Commenced on the 1st September 2006 and will be operational through to 28th February 2009. (which
covers the period leading up to the PSI Directive review in 2008 by the European Parliament.)
Has now been operational for 16+ months and during that time has established network links with
Australia, Canada, Southeast Asia and the OECD. That is the topic is a global one not just European or
national.
