Public Private Partnership Cluster

HIATUS

 

What we did: Learned from shared experiences  in developing and maintaining public-private partnerships (P3).

Why we did it: The fluid definition of a P3 makes it challenging to define, share, and implement leading practices.

Earth from space

Maximizing the societal benefits of Earth science data increasingly requires the development of effective partnerships between Earth observation creators, researchers, application developers, and end users. Participants in these different activities frequently work within different organizations like public sector agencies, research institutions, or private sector companies. Considering the benefits and challenges of developing efficient partnerships between these organizational contexts can contribute to the effort to maximize the impact of Earth observation data and information.

The P3 Cluster went on hiatus in 2022, but the work continues: Participants in the Cluster engage with many Collaboration Areas in ESIP and P3 continues to be an important topic at the biannual ESIP Meetings.
