The report analyses the potential impact of a transition towards Open Science on the stakeholders of the research ecosystem. The EU can accelerate the transition towards Open Science thanks to its unique position as funder and policy maker. A three step program is suggested that will: 1) support the on-going transformation; 2) make systemic to open the way to fully implemented Open Science; and 3) unlock the societal and economic value of Open Science

Objective:
Innovative digital tools that facilitate communication, collaboration, and the data analysis will enable Open Science practices.
All stakeholders of the research ecosystem will benefit from Open Science, although it will change work habits and business models.
Digital platforms will facilitate innovation by streamlining all phases of the innovation process, from the generation of ideas to experimental work and fundraising.
Citizens will become new players of the research ecosystem. They will shape science policies and contribute to scientific research through citizen science actions and by funding researchers.
