Welcome to the GÉANT Newsroom

This section of the website contains information and materials related to publicity about GÉANT. Its contents are likely to be of interest to a wide range of visitors, but in particular to journalists and others in the media, and to PR and communications professionals within organisations involved in research networking or research. We hope you will find the available information of interest.

In the future, the newsroom will also include a press kit, project case studies and a European research networking supply chain diagram.

Many of the materials we produce are available electronically as PDF files. In addition, the GÉANT brochure and network maps are produced in print, and may be ordered free of charge via the form linked alongside.
