Following the conclusion of the Co-Publishing Space (CPS) mapping exercise across the European Economic Area, we are pleased to announce the publication of the relevant report, containing information and insights on:

  • The purpose and objectives of the CPS
  • The overview of the methodology used for the mapping
  • The demographics of the existing platforms reviewed and survey respondents
  • Statistics and insights on CPS use case preferences across the innovation procurement value chain by both demand-side and supply-side stakeholders
  • Statistics and insights on CPS feature and functionality preferences across 6 relevant categories
  • The current coverage of both use cases and features by existing platforms, and implications for the CPS design

The results outlined in this report inform the usability aspects of the Co-Publishing Space design and will affect the services offered by the platform upon its implementation.
