• A science – industry partnership to drive R&D and innovation
• Started in 2002, now in second phase, phase 3 under preparation
Motto: “you make it – we break it”
• Evaluates state-of-the-art technologies in a very complex environment and improves them
• Test in a research environment today what will be used in industry tomorrow

Summary
openlab has established it self as a reference Good balance between near-term and mid-
term R&D Continuous stream of results due to long-term
partnerships openlab has trained many young scientists LHC computing has profited directly
A big “thank you” to our partners and contributors
