It aims to inform about ELIXIR resources and create a space to network for industry and academia.

With a mix of high-level keynote speakers and interactive sessions, this event will allow you to discuss and interact with other companies and ELIXIR partners. A specific session with Flash Talks, will give new companies the chance to introduce their work to a broad audience.
ELIXIR Beacon Workshop
The Human Data Community is working with the Global Alliance for Genomics and Health to provide a simple way to make data discoverable through “Beacons” (https://beacon-project.io/ ). You can query the lightweight metadata provided by a data resource (a ‘beacon’) to ask questions like ‘Does this dataset have genomes with this allele at that position?’ and get a ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ answer.
This workshop will show examples of current Beacon users and give you hands on experience on how to light a “Beacon” in your company/research institute
