🌍🛰️ How do NRENs & RRENs support Earth Observation research?
At our April infoshare with the Group on Earth Observations (GEO), RedCLARA & ASREN, we explored how R&E networks enable Earth Observation research, supporting data access, policy, training, and cross-border collaboration.
Daniela Brauner also shared these insights at GEO Global Forum 2025 last week.

RAG has revolutionised AI by merging search and generation. Agentic behaviour takes this search to the next level by enabling LLMs to make decisions and call tools. At this year's Berlin Buzzwords, Bilge Yücel will discuss how agentic behaviour enhances pipelines, what it means for a system to act as an 'agent', and core concepts such as routing, tool calling and reasoning, along with a live demo.
